I need help. I just bought new camry hybrid to use as uberx but when i went to red book inspection and they said that your car is driven as taxi so we cannot let you use this same car for uberx. Please help me what i can now. I was totally unaware of it.
So the rule is UberX vehicles must not be an ex-taxi/taxi, ex-driving school, government, branded or rebuilt vehicle. It seems you maybe need to sell this Car and buy one which hasn’t been used as Uber X before. There is no other alternative. You can rent Uber for $200 a week until you can be able to drive your own car as Uber
I have a poor driving record historically due to untreated ADHD and stupidity. No criminal convictions or DUI's but a plethora of speeding tickets and license loss prior to 2020. Now I've treated the ADHD, developed some maturity and insight I'm a model driver and have been for nearly a year. I feel I would do well as an uber x driver as I know Melbourne well and like making small talk with a cross section of people. But am I wasting my time applying with a poor driving record (though nothing recent)? If anyone has any advice I'd appreciate it.
There is no harm in trying driving Uber for weeks or months. If you are not comfertable driving after few weeks then you can try other jobs. Instead of buying a car for Uber, rent it and try.
@@SABIH-P8Y Thanks mate. I have my own car already and have already applied for my accreditation. The issue is a very poor driving record in the past though its been clean for the last year. I feel I might fail the background check.
@@angusyates828 you holding yourself back mate! As long your licence is not suspended at the moment, you can be uber Driver . I started uber when I had only one demerit point left. I also have adhd. I'll advise you to drive quite period like late nights or so. If else you'll get frustrated with the traffic jam.
@@encrypted983 Unfortunately not. You still need to pass a medical to get the drivers accreditation. I'm on 20mg of diazepam that I've been on for a decade. I never needed it but thats another story. The Dr's refuse to pass me fit to drive uber or taxis until I reduce the diazepem to 10mg which given how terrible benzo wd is will take a few months. So mate the ADHD meds aren't a problem, nor is my driving record but the diazepam is. Thanks for the advice hopefully I can get there later this year.
Hi I have Full Victorian license 7 months old and applied for driver accridation, how much time driver accridation takes or i can sign up without accridation?
It takes three months to process a driver accreditation application. In addition, if an applicant has a medical condition such as diabetes, well, then they have to wait even longer for the CPVV medical board to meet once every three months. To apply for a new driver accreditation, you must: You must have a full, current driver licence, or Have held a full Australian or New Zealand driver licence for at least six months. You cannot start a new application if you: Have a current driver accreditation Have an expired driver accreditation Have already started or submitted an application for accreditation
I’m planning to go to Australia next year and I will transfer my Japanese driver license to Australian driver license. I heard that I must have a Australian driver license at least over 12 months. Is that true?? I have a Japanese driver license over 3 years so I will get full license in Australia right now. That’s mean I’m not beginner driver so I can start Uber driver when I just transfer the license at that time?
On a temporary visa you can drive Uber with overseas license for 3 months. But once you get a PR, you need to pass the driving test to get Australian license. 12 months requirement is only for people who got their license first time during the last 12 months period
@@SABIH-P8Y but I came here with my Argentinian license. I can do the test for the full driver license here in NSW and they can give me a full Aussie license. My question is if I do that I must wait 12 month to start to do drive share

If you're visiting Victoria for less than six months you can drive on your overseas driver licence provided it is valid and current. If you've been living or will be living in Victoria for six months or more you'll need to convert your overseas licence or permit to a Victorian licence. you need to Complete the form on vicroad website link below www.vicroads.vic.gov.au/licences/new-to-victoria/convert-your-overseas-licence SOME INFORMATION FOR YOU FROM VIC ROADS WEBSITE. Changes to overseas driver licence rules Failing a practical driving test will affect you differently after 1 September 2015. What’s the change? From 1 September 2015, if you fail a VicRoads practical driving test you’ll no longer be able to drive in Victoria using your overseas driver licence. This change applies to all VicRoads practical driving tests including: Car driving tests Motorcycle learner permit skills assessments Motorcycle licence tests Heavy vehicle licence tests. Why is this change being introduced? Our driving tests are designed to keep Victorian roads safe by ensuring a minimum standard of driving ability. If you’ve failed a practical driving test, you’ve demonstrated that your driving ability isn’t up to the minimum standards. This means it’s not safe for you to drive on Victorian roads. I’ve failed driving tests in the past. Will this change affect me? No. This change only applies to practical tests failed on or after 1 September 2015. What if I’m exempt from tests? Will this change affect me? Australia recognises driver licences from several countries differently. If you’re not required to take any practical driving tests then you won’t be affected by this change. Does this change affect interstate or New Zealand driver licence holders? If you hold an interstate driver licence, you won’t be affected by this change. If you hold a New Zealand driver licence you’re exempt from tests, so you won’t be affected by this change. What happens if I keep driving after failing a practical driving test? If you fail a practical driving test your overseas driver licence is no longer valid in Victoria. It’s an offence to drive unlicensed in Victoria, so if you continue to drive you’ll be breaking the law. If you get caught driving without a driver licence, you may be fined. How can I legally drive in Victoria? If you’ve failed a driving test, you’ll need to get a Victorian driver licence or learner permit before you can drive on Victorian roads. To do this, you’ll need to re-sit - and pass - your practical driving test. If you need to improve your driving skills before you re-sit your test, you can apply for a learner permit. This will allow you to practice your driving while accompanied by an experienced driver. Find out more about getting a learner permit. When planning to live and drive in Australia long term, you’ll need a standard Australian licence after your first three months are up (but it’s six motnhs in Victoria).
It's important to note that if your vehicle does not pass the minimum specifications for UberX, it will likely not pass for other Uber types. All cars being driven for Uber in Sydney must: Be in excellent working condition with no cosmetic damage. Have at least 4 doors.
