Uber will soon allow female passengers and drivers to stop being paired with men
The new rule to protect women when using Taxi app
- Uber is rolling out new features in the US that allow customers and drivers to opt for women-only rides.
- The updates enable riders to set a preference for female drivers and drivers to accept only female customers.
- These features will be piloted over the next five weeks in San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Detroit.
- The company stated the initiative responds to requests from women riders and drivers for more control over their trips.
- Uber previously experimented with similar features in Saudi Arabia in 2019, which have since expanded to 40 countries.
