FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about booking, pricing, safety and working with SteerSafe.
Using SteerSafe
Why wouldn’t I just take a taxi or ride app?
Because your car stays with you.
No need to leave it overnight, no need to come back the next day, and no parking stress. SteerSafe is not a taxi or ride-hailing app: we don’t send you a car, we send a professional driver who drives you in your own.
Open this answerDo I have to leave my car?
No. Your car stays with you at all times. Your driver drives you, and your car, to your destination.
Open this answerIs SteerSafe like a private chauffeur?
Yes, but on demand.
You get the experience of a chauffeur without hiring one full-time. Request a driver for right now, or schedule one ahead in the app.
Open this answerHow does the driver get to me?
If a driver is close by, they walk to you. Otherwise a SteerSafe transport driver drops them off at your pickup point.
Getting the driver to you is already included in the price you see before you confirm, and after your trip we collect the driver. There is nothing for you to arrange.
Open this answerHow long does it take to start the trip after the driver arrives?
Usually a minute or two. Your driver meets you at your car, you share the PIN from your app, and you are on your way.
Open this answerCan I book a driver in advance?
Yes. Schedule a driver in the app for any time at least 15 minutes ahead: after a dinner, a wedding or a long day. You can cancel a scheduled ride from the app.
Open this answerCan I track the trip?
Yes. Your trip is coordinated in real time from start to finish. You can follow your driver on the map as they come to you, and see your trip progress as you go.
Open this answerWhat if I need multiple stops?
You can ask your driver for extra stops. Because the final fare is based on the actual distance and time of the trip, the stops are simply part of your journey.
If your driver waits for you at a stop, the app shows that the wait has started, and those minutes are billed like any other trip minute.
Open this answerCan I change my destination during the trip?
Yes. Change it in the app at any point of the trip, and your driver is told straight away. The new destination needs to be inside the area we cover.
Your final fare follows the trip you actually take, so a further destination costs more and a closer one costs less.
Open this answerDo I need to register my car?
Yes, once, before your first trip. In the app, add the make, model, year, colour, plate and gearbox, four photos (front, back and both sides), and the car’s registration and insurance.
Our team checks the car and approves it, and then you can book with it. If the registration or insurance expires, the app reminds you to update it before you can book again.
Your driver sees the car’s details and front photo so they can find it. Your registration and insurance are never shown to drivers.
Open this answerCan the driver drive a manual car?
It depends on the driver. When you add your car you choose automatic or manual, and drivers see it before they accept. A driver who doesn’t drive manual can decline, and your request goes to the next driver.
Please choose the gearbox correctly, so the driver who arrives is one who can drive your car.
Open this answerWhat if I left something in the car?
Since it’s your own car, your belongings stay with you.
Open this answerWhere is the service available?
SteerSafe drives in Amman.
The app tells you whether your pickup point and destination are covered before you request.
Open this answerWhat happens if I had too much to drink?
Your driver will handle the entire trip professionally. Your safety and comfort are the priority.
Open this answerIs it legal to use this after drinking?
Yes. You are not driving, a licensed driver is operating your vehicle.
This makes it a responsible and safe alternative to driving under the influence.
Open this answerPricing and payment
How is the price calculated?
You receive an estimate before the trip. Final pricing is based on the actual distance and time.
The estimate includes getting your driver to you and back again after your trip, and taxes are included.
Open this answerWill I pay more than the estimate?
Only if the trip becomes longer than expected: traffic, a different route, a stop where your driver waits for you, or a new destination.
If it’s shorter, you pay less.
Open this answerWhat if no driver is available?
Then you pay nothing. No driver means no charge.
Open this answerCan I cancel?
Yes. Cancelling is free while we look for a driver, and for a short grace period after a driver accepts.
After that a cancellation fee may apply, and a larger one once your driver has reached your car. The app always tells you whether a fee applies before you confirm the cancellation.
Open this answerHow do I pay?
Pay in cash, or with a saved card where available. You choose before you confirm the request.
Open this answerDo I have to tip the driver?
No, tipping is optional but always appreciated.
Open this answerDo I get a receipt?
Yes. After every trip we email you a receipt with the route, the driver and car, the distance and time, and the fare line by line, including tax. You get one for a cancellation that was charged too.
Every trip is also in the app, with its final fare.
Open this answerHow do invite codes work?
Every customer has a personal invite code under Invite friends in the app. Share it with a friend.
Your friend enters it before their first trip and gets a discount code straight away. When they complete their first paid trip, you get a discount code too.
Reward codes are for one trip, and you add them at booking like any promo code.
Open this answerSafety and your car
Who are the drivers?
Independent, verified drivers who meet SteerSafe standards for professionalism and safety.
Open this answerIs the driver verified?
Yes, all drivers go through a screening process. Our team reviews each driver’s driving licence, national ID and non-criminal record certificate before their first trip.
Open this answerIs the driver required to have a valid license?
Absolutely. Every driver must hold a valid driver’s license and meet SteerSafe’s verification requirements before being approved.
Open this answerHow do I know it is the right driver?
The app shows your driver before they arrive and gives you a verification PIN. Your trip only starts once you share that PIN with your driver at your car.
Open this answerHow do I know my car is safe?
All drivers go through a verification and approval process.
Trips are coordinated and monitored to ensure a secure experience.
Open this answerDoes my car insurance still apply?
Vehicle insurance follows the car, not the driver.
However, we recommend checking your individual policy for specific terms.
Open this answerWhat if something happens to my car?
SteerSafe operates with strict accountability procedures.
Support is available, and every trip is documented.
Open this answerWhat if I don’t feel comfortable?
Support is available, and trips are monitored. Message our support team from the trip screen in the app, or contact us on WhatsApp.
Open this answerWill the driver judge me or make me uncomfortable?
No. Drivers are trained to be discreet, respectful, and professional at all times.
Open this answerDrivers and partners
Do I need a vehicle to drive with SteerSafe?
Not as a SteerSafe driver: you drive the customer’s car, and our transport drivers move you between jobs.
If you have your own car, you can join as a transport driver instead.
Open this answerCan venues partner with SteerSafe?
Yes. Hotels, lounges, and clubs can integrate SteerSafe as a guest service. So can restaurants, event venues, valet operators and companies.
Open this answerHow do I delete my account?
You can delete your customer or driver account from inside the app, under Settings.
