Safety is Uber’s number one priority

Uber set the industry standard for consumer safety across the country. All uberX rides in Rhode Island are insured up to $1.5M per incident. All drivers must pass a rigorous background check, plus riders rate the drivers after each trip to ensure ongoing quality. You’ll always see your driver’s name, photo, vehicle make and model, license plate number, and rating when your request is confirmed—so you know who’s picking you up ahead of time. And with GPS tracking you can easily share your location and ETA with friends and family.

Uber reliably connects people to affordable rides

Wherever Uber has launched, we’ve seen Uber bring reliable rides to rural areas and smaller towns that were previously underserved and overcharged by local taxi options.

Rhode Island needs Uber’s safe, reliable & affordable rides

In RI, drunk driving fatalities far exceed the national average. Since Uber launched here in 2013, we’ve seen spikes in Uber usage when bars close; Rhode Islanders are trying to use Uber as a safe, reliable way to get home after drinking.
Now’s the chance to TELL THE LEGISLATURE WHY RHODE ISLAND NEEDS UBER. Help Uber drive Rhode Island forward.

Thanks for your support,

Team Uber Rhode Island
