The answer

If the authority responsible for the company permits the use of the car before a driver is available, then there is no harm in that, and the wage is lawful, because they consented to the car remaining with you, thus making it a gift of usufruct. However, if they did not permit you to use it, and left it as a trust, then you are not allowed to use it. If you do, they have the right to claim a fee for its use.
