Fines in 2024 are getting more expensive, outrageously expensive, even. A brief moment of distraction could cost you dearly. Driving 13 kilometers per hour over the speed limit in an urban area can happen to the best of us and you’ll be shelling out € 199,00.
‘The moment’ you’re briefly distracted and run a red light. Bam! €300.00.
Or this one: steering wheel in your left hand and your phone in your right?
420,00 euro
Four hundred and twenty euros!!
For that amount, you could buy a plane ticket to New York.
And the chances that you occasionally hold that phone in your hand are over 70%.
Then driving with a chauffeur is A) cheaper and B) safer. For a private chauffeur with DriveMe, you pay an average of €17 excluding VAT.
Your big advantage?
You can text on the go. Or make calls. Work on your laptop. All without risking fines, and in a very safe and responsible way.
Are you ready to let a chauffeur drive your car?
