#### Accessing Co-Driver Features

#### Managing Co-Drivers

Once a co-driver is added, you can:

* View co-driver information.
* Switch between drivers.
* Log out the co-drivers.

#### Security Measures

* While using co-driving, ensure that the co-driver is using the main driver's phone to log in and drive.
* Both the Main Driver and the Co-Driver should log in from the same phone.
* Co-driver password verification is required for all management functions.
* This ensures secure access and prevents unauthorized changes.
