FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
After the driver has accepted a booking, their number becomes available and you will be able to call them.
That means that there are no parents in your community that are offering a trip. You can create a trip and offer this to other parents in your community.
You will receive notifications of the journey as the driver picks up and drops off your child.
You will also be able to see the live location of your child.
Unfortunately, this means that the driver has not permitted to get the live location from their phone to enable the ride-sharing platform to track the trip.
You can share the trip with your child (if they have a phone) that shows a picture of the driver and the vehicle. As for pick-up/drop-off points, arrangements must be made in advance.
We are relying on drivers to only cancel if it is absolutely necessary. We also ask that you notify the riders well in advance for them to be able to make alternative arrangements.
Your school needs to make use of the d6 management system which enables them to connect you as a user. This is also how you will be verified in order to make use of the ride-sharing service.
This means that your contact number is not listed in your schools contact database. Please request from your school to add you as a contact on their d6 Connect management portal.
