What Is A Private Driver?

Difference Between Hiring A Car Service and Hiring Private Transportation Services
When you hire a car service such as Uber or a Limo service you are not only hiring a driver, but the car as well. Car services such as Uber simply pick you up at one location and deliver you to another location. They don't stick around until you complete your business, nor do they normally take you from place to place throughout the day or evening.
A limo service you rent for a certain period of time, and they come with their car, drive you wherever they wish to go, including multiple stops, and will wait for you at any location you choose. With a car service you are paying for the driver's time and services, gas, and rental on the vehicle. You also don't know in advance the condition of the car or the type of mileage the vehicle gets.
When you hire a private transportation service, the driver comes to your location and drives your vehicle. You know what condition the vehicle is in and what type of mileage the vehicle gets. Chauffeurs are paid by the hour or by the day, will take you wherever you need to go, will provide you with additional services, all for less than you would pay a car service.
