Drive with Uber
Innisfil needs drivers like you! Riders request Uber rides to get around town everyday—you could use your vehicle to cash in on the action.
Driving with Innisfil Transit
Residents of Innisfil are able to get a safe and affordable ride, on demand. Innisfil Transit matches riders going in the same direction so they can share a vehicle and the cost of the ride. For drivers, this means more rides and more fares.

What is Innisfil Transit?
To make the service as efficient as possible, Innisfil Transit was built on top of uberPOOL, our carpooling service. Riders request their Innisfil Transit ride through the Uber app, and can be matched with other riders travelling on a similar path. Each rider pays their own fare and drivers receive multiple fares added together.
Like uberX, drivers will receive a request through the app and given directions to pick up the first rider. If we’re able to find another rider going the same direction, you’ll receive a second request in the app. Directions will be updated automatically.

Next step: Complete a vehicle inspection
- Find an inspection centre
Find your nearest inspection centre and make an appointment for a vehicle inspection. Our preferred locations are below but you’re welcome to use your own mechanic. If you do, be sure to visit a Motor Vehicle Inspection Station that can issue a ‘Safety Standards Certificate’. - Complete a vehicle inspection
Bring your vehicle in for the inspection. If your vehicle passes the inspection, the mechanic will give you a Safety Standards Certificate (SSC). Note that Uber does not cover the cost of the inspection, or any repairs or maintenance needed to pass an inspection. - Upload your Safety Standards Certificate
After you pass your vehicle inspection, upload a clear photo of the ‘Safety Standards Certificate’ to your Uber account.
