Vehicle Inspection for Uber & Lyft Drivers in Oklahoma

Did you know that the number 1 reason that drivers in Oklahoma put off their driver application is the mandatory vehicle inspection? That’s right – many drivers are excited to get on the road and start making money with Uber or Lyft, but then hit a bit of a roadblock when they realize that they need an inspection.

The reason is obvious – who has time to go to a local mechanic in Oklahoma? And it’s not only about taking the time to do that; there is the issue in having to go during the mechanic’s normal business hours. Add the time that you have to spend in the process, on top of the gas you consume to get there, and one can see why it’s not unusual for the driver to feel like giving up. Another issue that comes up is that the mechanic may try to sell you a bunch of other services that you don’t really need for the RideShare inspection.

But don’t despair! There is another option to the traditional mechanic – it’s called RideShare Mechanic. This is not your typical mechanic shop! RideShare Mechanic is a virtual mechanic that leverages technology such as Facetime or Whatsapp to conduct the inspection. So with the help of your smartphone, an inspector on the other end will guide you to show them the various items of your car that must be inspected.
