Booking a car with its owner driving

The By the hour tab on the Rides page books the car with its owner driving. Set the pickup, start date and time, passengers and bags, and add itinerary notes. Then build the shifts, one per day, each with a start and end time. The form flags shifts that run too long or sit too close together.

The quote is the total hours times the car's hourly rate, shown before you book. Your request goes to the owner to accept, and once accepted the price is fixed.

On the day, the ride page shows live status, the owner's details and a message thread. If the day runs long, ask for an extension from the ride page. Extra hours and waiting time show as separate line items.

You can cancel from the ride page before it starts.
