self-drive
You steer yourself
Self-drive describes vehicles you operate yourself rather than being driven by someone else.
A self-drive rental car or self-drive holiday puts you behind the wheel.
In British usage especially, self-drive distinguishes from chauffeur-driven services: self-drive hire.
The term also appears in discussions of autonomous vehicles, where self-drive capabilities mean the car drives itself.
