Abstract
A method of allowing an owner to permit use of an automobile by a requestor regardless of creditworthiness includes the steps of receiving a request from a requestor, and providing the automobile to the requester. The providing step involves requiring the requestor to agree to perform preselected tasks required by the owner, and preventing the requestor from using the automobile if the requestor does not perform at least one of the preselected tasks. The method also includes the step of performing the providing step without any regard for the creditworthiness of the requestor. The method also includes using an automobile-assurance mechanism that allows the owner to remotely control the automobile if the user does not perform the at least one preselected task. An automobile-control mechanism is also used to allow the owner to block operation of the automobile by the requestor.
