Our commitment to safety
We want you to move freely, make the most of your time, and be connected to the people and places that matter most to you. That’s why we are committed to safety, from the creation of new standards to the development of technology with the aim of reducing incidents.
Our new Door-to-Door Safety Standard
We want you to feel safe riding with Uber as our communities start to move again. That’s why we’re introducing our new Door-to-Door Safety Standard. Powered by Uber’s innovative technology, encouraging shared responsibility, and including guidance from health experts, these new measures are designed to help protect the health and safety of everyone who uses our platform.
In this together
All riders and drivers must wear a face cover or mask when using Uber, even when vaccinated.
Face Cover Check
We ask drivers to take a photo of themselves before they can begin driving, and our technology helps verify that they are wearing a face cover.
Expert-led guidance
We are working with the World Health Organization (WHO) to share safety tips and resources.
Ride Safety Feedback
You’ll now be able to leave feedback on health issues, such as a driver not wearing a face cover or a mask. This helps us improve and holds everyone accountable.
