Reasons to Ride

You’re a Late Night Hero

Whether they’re heading home from a bar or birthday party, riders appreciate all the ways you’ve gotten them home safely.  Studies have shown that Uber reduces drunk driving and alcohol-involved motor vehicle crashes. Thank you for your part in making our streets safer for everyone. 

Your safety is our priority

We know that driving at night isn’t always easy, but riders appreciate all of your efforts to make the streets safer. That’s why we’ve built new safety features in the app to help give you peace of mind on the road.

Emergency assistance button

You can use the in-app emergency button to call authorities to get help if you need it. The app displays your location and trip details, so you can quickly share them with emergency services. In some US cities, this information will be automatically shared with 911 dispatchers through our 911 integration pilot.

24/7 customer support

Uber customer associates trained in incident response are available around the clock.

Share your trip

Friends and family can follow your route and will know as soon as you arrive.

Every ride is insured

Each trip you take with Uber is insured to help protect you, your rider, and your car.*
