Our Terms of Service state, "You agree to comply with any and all applicable laws and regulations, including registration and minimum insurance requirements for your car." This article clarifies the insurance obligations for hosts listing their vehicles on Drive lah.
​

Host's Responsibility for Registration Insurance

As a general matter, it is required that you demonstrate "financial responsibility" to register your car in Singapore. This is usually accomplished by having a valid car insurance policy that meets the minimum legal requirements. The insurance provided through the Drive lah marketplace cannot be used to satisfy this initial registration insurance requirement.

All private hosts may list vehicles insured by any insurance provider, as long as they meet other legal requirements and their insurance provider has not prohibited them from booking out their car(s) on a person-to-person car sharing platform. Hosts should verify with their insurance provider that listing on Drive lah is permitted and does not violate their policy terms.

Insurance Coverage During Rentals

Please note that the existing insurance policy of the private hosts will not be invoked during the rental period. When a guest books your vehicle through Drive lah, the trip will be covered by the Drive lah protection plan.
