A Members Only

Ride Share System

A Smarter, Safer Way to Move

Welcome to Affordable
Transportation.

Reliable Rider is a members-only, zip code-based ride share club powered by full self-driving (FSD) vehicles—delivering a safer, more efficient, and dramatically more cost-effective alternative to traditional ride-sharing services. Unlike large, impersonal platforms, Reliable Rider puts control, safety, and savings back in the hands of members.

Why Reliable Rider?

Transportation should never feel uncertain. With Reliable Rider, it doesn’t.

No Unknown Drivers

Under your supervision, Full Self-Driving (FSD) can drive your Tesla vehicle almost anywhere. It will make lane changes, select forks to follow your navigation route, navigate around other vehicles and objects and make left and right turns. None of these advanced driver assistance features replace you as the driver.

Private, Trusted Network

Only verified club members and their invited guests ride together. You do not have to engage with other club members unless you choose to. As shown in the Vehicle Safety Report, Tesla vehicles with Full Self-Driving (FSD) engaged experience 7X fewer major and minor collisions than those driven without FSD.

Consistently Maintained Vehicles

Professionally managed, serviced, and upgraded annually. The Tesla Model Y typically requires only 1–2 service visits per year, often limited to routine maintenance like tire rotations, cabin air filters, and wiper blade replacements.

Built for Efficiency

Your life runs on routine—your transportation should too.

Reserve vehicles in predictable 4-hour blocks, up to 3 months in advance
Perfect for everyday needs: errands, appointments, social events, airport trips, music and sporting events, restaurants, and bars.
Designed around your lifestyle, not surge pricing or driver availability

Radically Cost-Effective

Car ownership is expensive—and getting more so every year. Reliable Rider changes the equation.

Shared car payments, insurance, maintenance, and depreciation
Predictable, transparent pricing
Access to premium electric vehicles at a fraction of ownership cost

Membership Options:

16 Hours/Month:

$4,531 annually (~$23.60/hour)

8 Hours/Month:

$2,265 annually (~$23.60/hour)

Compare that cost to the average cost of individual car ownership—$11,577/year—and the savings are clear. Compare the membership cost to the average cost per mile from Uber, Lyft, Waymo and Robo Taxi.

How It Works

Reliable Rider clubs are formed locally, with 20 or 40 members per zip code. Once a club reaches capacity, it activates—and your access begins. For a simple $25 application fee (non-refundable), you can reserve your spot. No ongoing costs until your club is going active. Reliable Rider handles everything, including:

Vehicle acquisition and upgrades (Tesla Model Y fleet)
Full Self-Driving (FSD) software
Insurance, licensing, and compliance (legal & regulatory)
Charging station installations at member homes (non-refundable)
Maintenance, repairs, and member support
Member app for scheduling, mileage tracking, reservations and communications
Member reimbursement of electricity costs for re-charging the vehicle
Member Marketing, Tech Support Staffing, Invoicing, Accounting, Club Manager Staffing (Reliable Rider, LLC)

How It Works

Seniors seeking independence while minimizing their driving risks
People looking to minimize the costs of car ownership
Consumers who value shared access to premium FSD vehicles more than ownership
Environmentally conscious riders who want to reduce their carbon footprint

Reliable Rider is built for people ready for an alternative beyond traditional car ownership:

People who realize that gas supplies can be disrupted and that gas prices may become prohibitive
People who want to deploy the most advanced technologies to minimize their driving risks
Responsible people who want a safer alternative when going out to restaurants, bars, music and sporting events.

Frequently Asked Questions

01.

What is the Member’s Cost Share of the Club Vehicle?

Member vehicle costs would then be $2331.50 (20 member club) or $1165.75 (40 member club).

02.

What Happens if I want to Cancel My Club Membership?

If you cancel your Club Membership or if your Club Membership is terminated for cause, your next month’s club membership fee will not be invoiced. You will receive a pro-rated refund of your annual vehicle cost share and FSD subscription costs. You will receive this refund after the next person on the club’s waiting list has fully activated their membership. Club Vehicle refunds will be sent via check or Zelle based on your preferences.

03.

When Does My Home Charging Station Get Installed?

Fourteen days before your club activates you will receive an email requesting that you verify whether you want to activate or don’t want to activate your club membership. If you activate an appointment with a licensed electrician will be scheduled to install your home charging station. You will receive an invoice for your home charging connector ($500) and installation ($2000). Every member’s charging station needs to be installed prior to the club activation. The costs of the home charging station installation are non-refundable.

04.

Am I Expected to Ride Share with Other Club Members?

The member driver is responsible for the vehicle and the safety of all other passengers during your 4-hour reserved use of the club vehicle. As the club vehicle driver, you can ride with any other people you choose including other club members. You are not obligated in any way to share rides with other club members. For your safety you should only ride with people you know like family and friends. You can bring other people into your ride at your own risk and liability (See Release of Liability Waiver).
