Can Military Members Drive Uber Rent TLC Car or Their Own Vehicle?

For members of the military, making ends meet is still a challenge in today's world. However, the obligations of being in the military curtail most part-time jobs as their commitment prevents them from working more than a short period for themselves. However, for those in the military who have their own qualifying vehicle or rent a TLC car, Uber provides an option to make extra money on their own time.

How It Works

If you are part of the US military, you are used to be moved around the country, if not the world, on a regular basis. However, for those who have their own vehicle which qualifies for Uber or can rent a TLC car for Uber, you do have the option of working on your off-time, such as a few days each month, to make some extra cash driving for Uber.

However, many of those in the military may not have some of the basic requirements to work for Uber. Namely, Uber requires that you have an in-state drivers license and also in-state insurance for your vehicle or the vehicle that you use.

So, the question is does Uber make exceptions for those in the military?

The answer is no.

Uber makes no exceptions for those in the military, although if you are in the military, you can drive for Uber assuming you meet all the requirements. You will need to ask your commanding officer and fill out any paperwork required by the military for you to drive for Uber.

For most members of the military, especially those with long-term assignments to one location, this should not be an issue. The only exception would be for those who are currently enrolled in Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC) which means that the military will prevent you from holding an outside job, even one driving for Uber. However, you should always check with your commanding officer or consult the rules and regulations to determine what you can and cannot do while being in the military.

Requirements

Since all military members must meet Uber requirements, which include having an in-state driver's license along with in-state insurance, the proper qualifying vehicle, and all other requirements set out by Uber, if you meet all the standards, then you can drive for the rideshare company.

Keep in mind that there is one exception in terms of having an in-state driver's license if you are located in a city that borders another state, such as New York City for example. This means that you can drive across state lines while still meeting the requirements for Uber. Otherwise, you must meet all requirements for Uber and Lyft as if you were not a member of the military.

If you do not meet the requirements for Uber, there are still other on-demand jobs that are well suited for members of the military whether you drive your own vehicle or rent a TLC car , such as delivering packages or food depending on the business that you choose.
