- Real chauffeurs. W-2 employees, background-checked, in formal black, vs. independent contractors in their own car.
- Full insurance. $5M liability + $1.5M umbrella vs. the driver’s personal policy plus platform contingent coverage.
- Real dispatcher. Call 224-801-3090 24/7 — answered by a live human in Palatine. No bot, no app-only support.
