We're opening the doors to Learner Drivers

 

We're excited to announce that effective now, drivers 16+ with an 'L' (Learner) designation or better can join Modo as "Green Members!"

 

With summer break upon us, it’s a great time for teens and adults alike to get some practice driving hours in and get a taste for carsharing first-hand. We're thrilled to be the first carshare company in North American to allow learner drivers and hope this move will inspire a new generation to choose sharing over ownership!

 

Learn more about the program and if you are eligible on our website and read the press release on the blog.

Pro Tip: Fueling up

Not sure where to find the fuel card? What type of fuel should you be using? How full should you leave the gas tank?
