Our Drivers
The most important part of our business is you or your loved ones safety!!! We believe that our seniors and children are the two most important people in this world. For one, our seniors raised us to be leaders and impart wisdom onto us. On the other hand, we aspire to raise our children to be upright citizens and future leaders in this world.
HOW DRIVERS ARE ASSIGNED
We carefully align our drivers to our client’s individual profile. Since trust is one of our core values, we try as much as possible to assign and maintain the same driver throughout helping to establish rapport. We also encourage an initial client consultation between the driver and the client before the official ride begins.
In addition, our drivers must pass a highly selective comprehensive screening process which must be adhered to and/or maintained on a regular basis.
