Once the contract between the User and the Driver is formed, it may be cancelled by User at any time without reason by notifying the Driver directly or using the Booking System subject to payment of a Cancellation Fee and any applicable Transport Charges and/or Disbursements (and applicable Transaction Fees) in accordance with clause 8.
