- Do they inspect their vehicle before putting it out on the road, making sure it has enough fuel and water and that it is performing perfectly?
- Do they meticulously plan out the route to get you there on time?
- Do they come up with back-up routes in case there’s an unexpected accident or other delays on the road?
- What will happen if your driver takes ill on the morning of your wedding or if there’s an unforeseen problem with the car?
