Uber Driver & Car Requirements – What You Need To Drive For Uber

A lot of new drivers are surprised to find that Uber will hire almost anyone as long as you can pass a background check.  Uber doesn’t discriminate when it comes to age, sex or race and for many job-seekers, that can be a blessing.  Let’s go over all of the Uber driver requirements.

Uber Car Requirements – How To Pass Uber Vehicle Inspection

Most drivers are able to sign up and pass Uber’s background check just fine, but not everyone knows about Uber’s car requirements. UberX, UberXL and UberSelect all allow you to use your personal vehicle to drive with Uber.

However, UberBlack, UberSUV and UberLUX all require commercial insurance and a TCP license or livery license.  Typically, these higher levels of service only make sense if you’re looking to be a full-time driver since the associated costs are much higher.

Welcome to the Uber Driver Training Guide

Over the past few years, I’ve shared a lot of information with you all through my articles, podcasts and videos.  But with thousands of articles now published, hundreds of hours of podcasts and videos, there is a lot of information to digest.  So that’s why I’ve created a handy Uber Driver Training Guide for anyone looking to get started with Uber or just brush up on the basics.

The Uber Driver Training Guide

This Uber driver training guide is designed for people new to rideshare driving, or people who may have questions about driving and aren’t sure if driving is right for them.

In the guide, we’ll answer the following questions

  • Do drivers actually earn money doing this job?
  • How can you get the highest sign-up bonus possible?
  • Is it really that flexible?
  • What kind of vehicle and driver requirements are there?
  • What insurance requirements are there to be a driver?
  • What do I need to know for taxes?
  • And more!

This guide is geared towards new drivers but you’ll also get my recommendations on the best times to drive to maximize the amount of money you make – working smarter, not harder.

The Uber Driver Training Guide is designed to help you determine if rideshare driving is for you: how to make more money and work smarter, not harder.
