Your Safety Checklist

tickbox
Track your car’s arrival in-app – there’s no need to go outside until your driver has arrived
tickbox
You can contact your driver through the app – Uber’s system anonymises your number so your contact details stay private
tickbox
Check your driver’s name, photo and registration plate matches the information you see in-app so you know you’re getting into the right car with the right driver
tickbox
Look for your driver’s Private Hire photo-badge and look for the Private Hire plate on the vehicle (which is normally next to the number plate) – all drivers are fully-licensed by their local authority, have undergone an enhanced criminal records check and are insured to carry passengers
tickbox
Travelling alone? ‘Share my ETA’ sends a live map to a friend so they know you’ve arrived safely
tickbox
Rate your driver after the trip – Uber uses this feedback to maintain the highest possible standards
For more information about how Uber’s system is designed to keep you safe, check out our safety blog. Questions, comments or concerns? Leave feedback in app, reply to the receipt or email supportmanchester@uber.com.
