Uber partners with It's On Us and the International Association of Campus Law Enforcement Administration (IACLEA) to share rideshare safety tips as students return to campus.
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 27, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- As students return to college campuses after winter break, Uber (NYSE:UBER) is doubling down on its commitment to raising awareness of rideshare safety. Uber has partnered with It's On Us and IACLEA to develop rideshare safety tips which are shared in-app with riders picked up or dropped off at more than 2,000 US college campuses.
College campuses across the US will also receive posters featuring important safety tips, including reminding riders to 'Check Your Ride' before getting into the vehicle. We always encourage riders to verify the license plate, car make and model, and driver's photo and name before getting into the car. If students are ordering a trip for someone else, please pass along vehicle and driver information so those riders can verify they are getting into the right vehicle.
Uber also has a number of other safety features built directly into the app, such as:
Starting today It's On Us, a leading nonprofit in college campus sexual assault prevention, will help distribute vouchers for a discounted Uber ride when students at select colleges read our safety material. Colleges included in this initiative are the University of California at San Diego; New Mexico State University; University of Portland; St. Edward's University; Lake Forest College; University of Rhode Island; Kutztown University; Boston University; Clemson University; and Florida Institute of Technology.
We want to remind students to stick together, check in with friends and loved ones before they go out, stay vigilant at night, trust their gut if something seems out of the ordinary and call 911 in an emergency.
