Our approach to safety

We recognize that every time you open your Uber app, you're putting your trust in our technology—to not only connect you with a driver, but to also give you resources in case of emergency. That trust is what drives us to continuously raise the bar, building new safety features, setting guidelines for respectful and positive experiences, and more.

Whether you’re a rider, driver, or anyone who uses Uber, your safety drives us.

There’s auto insurance to help protect you

We work with leading auto insurance providers to help protect riders and drivers on the Uber app. Uber maintains commercial auto insurance in case of a covered accident, including at least $1 million in liability insurance on behalf of our driver-partners once a ride is accepted.

Working together to keep communities safe

We have a dedicated public safety team that works closely with law enforcement to support investigations and help keep communities safe. Available 24/7, they provide timely, critical information through our secure portal to assist with active cases when every second counts.

“Every day, our technology puts millions of people together in cars in cities around the world. Helping keep people safe is a huge responsibility and one we do not take lightly.”

Dara Khosrowshahi, Uber CEO

Partnering to make a difference

Our commitment to safety goes beyond your ride. We have teamed up with leading experts—from public safety officials to anti-violence organizations—to help make roads and cities safer for all.
