Add to Dashboard API section (after line 1706):

### Get Weekly Dashboard
Retrieve a comprehensive 7-day dashboard summary with optimized data loading and family-based filtering.

```http
GET /api/v1/dashboard/weekly?startDate={startDate}&familyId={familyId}
Authorization: Bearer {token}

Query Parameters:

• startDate (optional): ISO date string for the start of the week. Defaults to current week start (Monday)
• familyId (optional): Family ID for context. If not provided, uses authenticated user's family

Response:

                "familyId": "family123"
              },
              "driver": {
                "id": "user123",
                "name": "John Doe"
              },
              "assignedChildrenCount": 3,
              "availableSeats": 4,
              "isFamilyVehicle": true,
              "vehicleFamilyId": "family123",
              "assignedChildren": [
                {

• Cached results: Frequently accessed data is cached for 5 minutes

Error Responses:

// Invalid date format
{
  "success": false,
  "error": "Invalid startDate format. Expected ISO date string."
}

// Authentication required
{
  "success": false,
  "error": "Unauthorized"
}
