Why do I have to select if I am the driver for every Tryp?

You can only earn XP and collect Pyns on Tryps where you have selected the Driver option (refer to article 'How do I select Driver/Passenger’). You cannot change this option once you have selected either Driver or Passenger so you must be careful with your selection .  You may refer to each individual Tryp to check the date and route to ensure you were the Driver of that Tryp.

We have included this feature so you are not penalized if you are a passenger in a vehicle that may affect your score negatively.
