Have you used P2P carsharing - like Turo, Drivy, Hiyacar?

Hello, I'm a PhD researcher and I have designed a survey for people who have used peer-to-peer car sharing in the UK.

If you have used P2P carsharing, I'd be really grateful if you could spare a couple of minutes to complete my survey. It doesn't take long, and if you complete it you can win Amazon vouchers!

(And if you haven't, check it out! It's a cheaper and more flexible alternative to traditional car rental!)

EDIT: I can't post links as I'm a 'new member', so send me a PM and I'll reply with the survey link!

Thanks - I really appreciate it!

I would suggest you're unlikely to get impartial results if you offer an incentive - as many will complete multiple times - which is possible even if you set it up to prevent such mis-use via multiple browsers, devices or simply multiple email addresses, depending on your set-up.

And also unlikely to get impartial results if you, at the same time as asking, promote the car sharing apps (as you have in your opening post) as you've already built-in an imperative to look into the concept, and maybe try it out.

Plus of course the people using this forum are not representative of the wider population and the subset of those that bother looking at the survey threads are even less representative. And you've no way of telling how poorly representative they are.

Surely at PhD level you should be looking at much better sampling methods?
