  • Can drivers pick up and drop off riders anywhere?

    Riders and drivers are matched based on pick up and drop off locations, verified by Google Maps, and set in advance through SnapRyde. Since drivers (like riders) are most likely on their way to work, they’ll be sticking to their regular commute route and giving a ride along the way.

  • Is SnapRyde covered by my car insurance?
