Specific terms for Riders

The following sections also apply if you book a vehicle using the Services:

Riders’ Commitments

As a Rider , you commit that you will be 

  • a legally licensed driver and provide proof to the Partner or via the Services of a current, valid driver’s license. 
  • You will treat the vehicle and any applicable Extras well and will take all reasonable measures to return the vehicle and any applicable Extras on time and in essentially the same condition as received. 
  • You will not allow anyone other than a person listed in the trip details as an Approved Driver to drive the vehicle you booked.

Riders  Financial Responsibility for Physical Damage to the Vehicle

The Riders that booked the trip (“primary Riders ”) are financially responsible for all physical damage to or theft of a booked vehicle that occurs during a trip, plus any additional costs and fees resulting from damage of any kind to the vehicle, regardless of who is found to be at fault. This responsibility applies whether the primary Riders have their own auto insurance or not.

Primary Riders may be insured against damage to the booked vehicle under their own automobile policies. When you book a vehicle with us, you agree that if any damage occurs to the booked vehicle during the booked trip, you will work with us (Wopecar) to make a claim for coverage under any policy of insurance that applies to the loss.

The primary Riders can limit the amount they are obligated to pay out of their own pocket in the event there is damage to the booked vehicle during the booked trip by choosing a protection plan on the Services. Protection plan details and other specifics can be found(COMING SOON).The limitation on the amount a primary Rider  may have to pay out of pocket included in any protection plan only applies 

(1) if the primary Rider and any Approved Driver abide by these Terms and 

(2) to physical damage that is not mechanical or interior damage.

Auto liability insurance

Most Partners offering a vehicle for sharing on the Services cannot offer liability insurance to you. All protection plans offered on the Services include coverage under a third-party automobile liability insurance policy.

If the Rider has their own personal auto policy, it will be primarily over the insurance protection policy depending on various factors such as the package from the insurance company. 

Use of the vehicle

When you book a vehicle on Wopecar, you must use the vehicle only for your personal use and not for any commercial purposes (e.g. driving other passengers for a fee such as through Uber or Bolt or delivering food or other packages). 

You may not access a vehicle until the trip start time and you must return the vehicle on time and to the agreed location. 

You must present Wopecar with a current, valid driver’s license. 

You must exercise reasonable care in your use of the vehicle. You are required at all times to operate the vehicle safely, and in compliance with all applicable laws, including without limitation, speed limits and prohibitions on impaired or distracted driving. 

Vehicle theft

The following conduct may result in the reporting of the vehicle you have booked as stolen to law enforcement, possibly subjecting you and any other driver to arrest, and civil and/or criminal penalties, and the voiding of your protection plan:

  • If you fail to return the vehicle you booked at the time and place agreed upon with the Partner and/or designated in your reservation.
  • If you do not return the vehicle by the end of the reservation period and you have not properly obtained an extension of the reservation through the Services as set forth.
  • If the vehicle is returned to any place other than the return location on the reservation or agreed upon with the Partner. Any damage to, or loss or theft of, a vehicle occurring prior to the Partner inspecting the vehicle upon return at the end of the reservation is the Riders ’s responsibility.
  • If you misrepresent facts to the Wopecar pertaining to booking, use, or operation of vehicle.
  • If the vehicle’s interior components are stolen or damaged or the vehicle itself is stolen or damaged when the vehicle is left unlocked or running or unattended with the keys not secured during reservation period.
  • If you fail or refuse to communicate in good faith with the police, Wopecar, or other authorities with a full report of any accident or vandalism involving the vehicle or otherwise fail to cooperate in the investigation of any accident or vandalism.
  • If the vehicle is operated by anyone who has given a fictitious name, false address, or a false or invalid driver’s license, whose driver’s license becomes invalid during the reservation period, who has obtained the keys without permission of the Partner, or who misrepresents or withholds facts to/from Wopecar material to the booking, use, or operation of vehicle.

Thus, any issue of vehicle theft must go through the proper channel so it can be addressed accordingly.
