Fees and Penalties 

​

Bay Islands Car Share’s low rates depend on members doing the right thing by their fellow members. In the unlikely event that a member does the wrong thing, Bay Islands Car Share needs to charge fair fees and penalties to:

​

1. discourage those activities;

2. compensate the member on the other side of the transaction who has been put out; and

3. cover our extra costs of administering ‘the fix’.

​

For a full list of fees and penalties please refer to the Fee Schedule.
