question was for a place with reserved parking, my question was about the "these vehicles" part: _which_ vehicles, because as I tried to explain in my mail, not all vehicle rental with drivers are the same class (what we want vs. "what exists": classes do not exist without someone creating it, it is us who decide what kind of class according to what kind of criteria we create - for mapping in osm). Example: it could be sufficient to have just one tag (or "class") for all kinds of vehicles (likely not for most of the OSM mappers though). Already looking at Uber alone, it is clear they have quite different divisions which offer different services which will likely fall into different classes, e.g. Uberpop, UberBlack, Uber-Lux, Uber-SUV, Uber-X, Uber-XL, UberSelect and Uber-Van. AFAIK Uber-X and UberBlack drivers are required to hold a transportation license, i.e. they are similar to traditional rental vehicles with drivers, while other concepts were more aiming at circumventing regulation (which seems was ultimately not succesful, in the EU there was a decision to reagrd them as transport company and not as IT service company, as they had argued, and many countries have banned their business either as a whole, or significant parts of it).
