Re:BMW to Let Car Owners Rent Out Vehicles Like `Airbnb on W... by nether on Monday April 25, 2016 @08:47PM (#11568598)
This isn't the first time AirBNB for cars has been done. Turo/RelayRides has been doing it for a few years, and most of reports I've heard have been positive. It involves the same magnitude of concerns you get with renting out a home:

> Renters could mess up a home in any number of ways, from making a mess with food and drink, to damaging parts of the interior, to getting in accidents and causing serious damage. Are owners expected to do a full damage assessment pre/post every rental? Nobody will accept any liability otherwise.

> Think of all the nefarious activity a renter could get up to. Domestic violence, noise violations. Drug dealing or trafficking. Congratulations, your home is now a a meth house.
