Booking a rideshare driver without using the app? Here’s what you need to know.

When you book a ride with a rideshare driver outside of the official app, you’re putting your safety, your wallet, and your legal rights at serious risk:

❌ No Insurance Coverage – If you’re injured or involved in an accident, you may not be covered. Rideshare insurance only applies to trips booked through the platform.

❌ No Background Checks – Drivers operating outside the app may not be properly vetted or approved.

❌ No GPS Tracking – Your ride won’t be tracked, making it harder to report issues or locate you in case of an emergency.

❌ No Customer Support or Accountability – If something goes wrong, there’s no official record of your ride and no company to turn to.

📢 Protect yourself. Always choose licensed, insured, and properly vetted transportation services.
