    In my area, Turo is the lowest cost for car rentals, and they just act as a middleman between someone with a car and someone without one. They may have some vehicles of their own, but most of their fleet are not cars they own. It could just be people were going for the lowest cost form for their killing & destruction.

    I’ve rented through Turo and they just have you take a photo of your drivers license, front/back. No one confirmed it when picking up the car. It could be that their prescreening is flawed and fake IDs were not being detected? I’d have to imagine this violated state laws, so if they were found to not be validating the information, they are probably in some shit.
