Dollar.com - 'INCLUSIVE ITEMS ARE DRIVR' means free additional driver, right?
Using the BJ's code, I booked at Dollar.com a car for rental in Canada. At the time of booking the following message appeared:
"INCLUSIVE ITEMS ARE DRIVR"
I took this to mean that one additional driver was included in the price of the rental. However, when I picked up the car, I was told that each additional driver would be charged at $13.50 per day [which is nuts]. I asked about the "INCLUSIVE ITEMS ARE DRIVR" message, but the clerk told me that meant the rental included the primary driver - which makes no sense whatsoever.
So - does "INCLUSIVE ITEMS ARE DRIVR" mean what I'd thought? If so, how can I argue to have the invoice adjusted (contract is still open now, so should be easy enough). Alternatively, if this means something else - what on earth could that be?
Thanks for your advice/experience.
Checkerboard.

I'm at a loss for what DRIVR is. I would probably have assumed the same as you. That said, I don't believe the BJ's code has ever waived additional driver fees with Dollar, only with Alamo.
