Self-driving Tips by Yoma Car Share
1. CHECK THE CAR
Before you start driving, we recommend that you check your rental car, both exterior and interior. If you see any damage, inform us by “Check Car” feature from “Current Reservation” in your Yoma Car Share mobile app. Every car is checked, cleaned and prepared to be ready-for-rent. Since our rental hubs are humanless, we recommend that you check our cars before the start of the reservation.
2. OBEY ALL TRAFFIC RULES
From road signs, seat belts, to speed limits, there are traffic rules in place. Learning and applying traffic rules will help you and other drivers on the road to get to your destination in safety. Plus, insurance coverage is voided automatically if you do not obey the traffic rules.
3. KEEP THE RENTAL CAR IN GOOD RUNNING SHAPE
All vehicles in our fleet are subjected to strict periodic maintenance recommended by the vehicle manufacturer. We also maintain the health of tires on our cars based on the KM usage. If you are renting, especially for monthly rentals, we recommend that you keep the car in good shape, and you can reach us anytime at our 24/7 hotline for any concerns that you might have. Don’t forget – we offer replacement cars during your rental period.
4. WEAR YOUR SEAT BELT
Always. And make sure your passengers wear theirs, too. This is not just one of the traffic rules, but for your safety too.
5. AVOID DISTRACTIONS
Keep your eyes on the road. No texting, no calling, no eating, no channel surfing on the radio or turning around to talk to the passengers in the back. A split second is all it takes and paying attention will save you and other drivers on the road.
6. DON’T TAILGATE
The majority of rear-end accidents in the world are caused by following too closely behind the car in front. So, don’t tailgate and maintain a safe distance between your vehicle and others. If you rear-end the car in front of you just because they slam the brakes, it means a potential lawsuit from the other driver, and your insurance is also voided.
7. BE PREPARED
In case of accidents, breakdowns, or other emergencies, call us immediately at our 24/7 365 hotline 09YOMAFLEET (09966235338). The steps you have to follow in case of these accidents are also in the Starter Pack of your rental vehicle. Familiarize these and prepare yourself for the journey.
8. WATCH THE WEATHER
Rain and wind can make driving more difficult and dangerous. If it’s raining, be sure to turn your vehicle's headlights on, slow down and maintain a good distance from the other cars on the road. Wet roads are slick, and it takes longer to brake!
9. DON’T DRIVE UNDER THE INFLUENCE
Driving under the influence means being under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or lack of sleep. It’s not safe for you, your passengers, or other drivers on the road.
10. RETURNING THE CAR
Check the car again before you “End the Trip” on your Yoma Car Share app. Take a record of your returned vehicle, both exterior and interior, for your reference.
Now, enjoy the self-driving with Yoma Car Share. Remember, you can always reach us 24/7 365 for assistance at our hotline 09YOMAFLEET (09966235338).
