Carsharing peril analysis
Peril analysis is performed for carsharing insurance, i.e., peer-to-peer vehicle sharing insurance. The peril analysis is used to calculate the rate of and/or price insurance for carsharing. A renter may purchase insurance for carsharing (fully, as a supplement or going above and beyond a standard offering, or filling a gap between the minimal level a carsharing company provides and what a driver desires to provide for himself and vehicle's occupants, including comprehensive, collision, or a combination) using a mobile device, an embedded device, a vehicle, or an in-dash unit in the vehicle.

9. The apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are further configured to cause the apparatus to at least:
receive an indication of drivers license information, wherein the insurance options are calculated further based at least in part on the drivers license information.
10. The apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are further configured to cause the apparatus to at least:
determine a current insurance coverage of the vehicle comprising at least a start date and an end date; and
determine whether the current insurance coverage enables removal of the limitation of the operation of the vehicle based at least in part on at least the start data and the end date.
11. An computer program product comprising at least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer-executable program code instructions stored therein, the computer-executable program code instructions comprising program code instructions to:
receive an indication of a signal, detected via at least hardware of a vehicle, indicating that presence of a mobile device was detected inside the vehicle;
in response to receiving the indication of the signal, determine an identity of a user identity of the mobile device based at least in part on information entered via a user interface of the mobile device;
access a driver score and driving limits of the user based at least in part on the user identity;
