Passenger Safety

  • Maryland’s current law requires children under 8 years old must ride in an appropriate child restraint unless the child is 4’9 or taller. Every child from 8 to 16 years old who is not secured in restraint must be secured in the vehicle’s seatbelt, in every sitting position in the vehicle. (Note: Drivley does not provide car seats. You must provide your own. You may review the State of Maryland Child Passenger Safety Program here.)
  • Drivers will comply with all child passenger safety and traffic laws.
  • Drivers will ensure the safety of all passengers by driving responsibly and paying attention to their surroundings on the road.
  • Those booking rides will receive text or email alerts to notify them of their Driver status before, during, and after the trip.
  • Passengers must stay in their seats with seat belts on at all times.
  • Minors under the age of 13 must sit in the back seat.
  • Trips are tracked by management using Real Time GPS tracking software.
