Cancellations and “No Shows”
Cancellations should be made as soon as possible. A “no show” occurs if a driver shows up for a scheduled pickup, and the passenger does not.
Passengers who are a “no-show” or fail to cancel their trips less than 60 minutes ahead of time will be required to pay for the trip before any future rides can be provided.
Passengers with 3 or more “no shows” in a 60-day period may lose privileges for transportation.
Remember that this time slot has been scheduled for you. A no-show or short cancellation time has prevented someone else from riding.
