LYFT’S SAFETY FIRST PROGRAM

Lyft’s new health safety guidelines:
  • Wearing a mask during rides is now optional for everyone in the car.
  • As always, drivers and riders can cancel any ride that makes them feel unsafe.
  • Lyft proactively educates all riders and drivers on their Community Guidelines. Anyone who violates these guidelines or their Terms of Service may be permanently removed from the platform.

GENERAL SAFETY TIPS

  • Verify your ride by making sure the license plate number, driver information, and car make and model match what you see in the app.
  • Share your location and route with a friend or loved one from within the Lyft app so they can follow your ride in real time.
  • Follow the Lyft vehicle on GPS via the app.
  • Ask the driver to say who they are picking up.
