What if I lost something in the car?

As a rider, you are responsible for any loss of personal belongings. If you lose something

during your ride with DCC, you can take the following actions at your discretion:

  • Reach out to the person who drove you to your destination to check if they have it. If so, you can arrange with them about the best way to retrieve your item. You cannot demand a driver to deliver the lost item to you.
  • Be ready to pay a $18 return fee if the driver accepts to drive to return the item
  • Visit the office to check if the item was returned to our headquarters

We will do our best to help you if you misplace anything on one of our rides, but as previously

stated, please note that neither the cooperative nor the driver-members are responsible for lost

items.

Cancelling a ride

Cancellation fees may be charged to riders if they cancel the trip 3 or more minutes after requesting their ride. The amount you pay will depend on where you cancel during the trip. You will be charged either a minimum fee of $5 or a fee based on the actual time and distance covered by the driver.

If you cancel a trip within 3 minutes after you request the ride, no cancellation fee will be applied. If it doesn’t appear within two days, contact us for assistance.

You will be charged a cancellation fee if:

  • You cancel the ride after a driver has been matched.
  • More than 30 seconds after the driver accepts your ride.
  • The driver is on their way to pick you up.
  • The driver is scheduled to arrive within the designated pickup time.
  • After your driver arrives.
  • You are in the car and you decide to end the trip while en route
  • You cancel 3 or more rides in a 15-minute timeframe.
  • If a rider requests a ride for someone else, they will be charged any cancel or no-show fees for that ride.

You may be charged a no-show fee if you don’t show up when your driver:

  • Arrives to pick you up.
  • Waits the allotted time or longer.
  • Attempts to contact you, or you contacted your driver but you still don’t show up.
  • The no show fee is $3.50 charged on the rider

  • Children aged 12 and under should ride in the back seat.
  • If a child does not meet the height and weight safety standards for the car seat, or if the driver feels the child cannot be safely transported, the driver may cancel the ride.

What do I do if I left something in the car?
