Adding and managing co-drivers in the Drive App

Adding and managing co-drivers in the Drive App! Let's get started. Click the username icon in the upper right hand corner. Using the same device as the first driver used to log in, Click add driver. It must be the same device or the add driver function will not work. The additional driver signs in with their username and password and clicks log in. You can have three users logged in at once. With two (or more) drivers  logged in, the steering wheel icon is next to the driver who is currently behind the wheel. This is the driver that will have Drive logs assigned to them. To change the driver who is currently behind the wheel, Choose a different user from the list to set that driver as the Driver's Seat. Drivers who are not in the drivers seat will not see ‘Drive’ as an option to select as a log as they are not in the Drivers seat. These users will be able to navigate the screens on the unit even if the vehicle is in motion since they are not behind the wheel. When a user is no longer required such as at the end of the shift, they must remember to logout, the same way as they would normally. Make sure to note that each driver would need to logout if neither is required on the vehicle anymore. Congratulations! You've completed this tutorial for adding and managing co drivers!
