      Depende sa oras ng byahe and kung may surge. Ang typical na gross kita kung ng mga driver ay nasa 2000 Pesos to 4000 Pesos. Hindi pa labas dyan yung gas and yung 20% commission ni Grab.

      Dapat may sasakyan na kayo. Wala naman age limit kung operator lang. Kung driver may age limit, pag 60 na papakuhanin kayo ng medical certificate bago kayo makapagdrive. Pero kung operator lang kaya wala namang age limit. Basta legal age of 18 pwede na mag operator.

      Hello Pamela! Kasulukuyang hindi tumatanggap ang LTFRB ng new applicants. Ang pinakaunang step ay ang pagkuha ng CASE NUMBER mula sa LTFRB. Antayin nyo muna magbukas si LTFRB ng bagong slot

      Open palagi ang Grab for new applications pero yung LTFRB hindi. You need to get a CASE NUMBER from LTFRB before ka mag-apply sa Grab and other TNVS like OWTO and HYPE. Case Number muna palagi before kayo magpunta sa TNVS companies.

      Andyan na po sa itaas lahat ng requirements na kailangan nyo. Babasahin nyo na lang. Siguraduhin nyo lang na may CPC na yung sasakyan na bibilihin nyo dahil kung PA lang yan, siguradong sasakit lang ang ulo nyo.
