1099-NEC mile deduction if not my car

I am a delivery driver and dont have a car.  I used my moms car all 2024.  Can I deduct miles even though I dont owe the car?  Or what can I deduct if I dont owe the car?

You can deduct expenses that you actually paid like gas, oil. And car washes.

No.

 

You cannot deduct depreciation if you do not own the car.
