GREENVILLE, S.C. (FOX Carolina) – Uber is now offering an option for a women-only ride preference in Greenville.
The rideshare company said the goal was to give women more choice in how they ride and drive.
How it works:
For Riders
- Request on-demand: When requesting a trip on demand, women riders will see an option called Women Drivers. If the wait time is longer than anticipated, they can always opt for another ride with a faster pickup.
- Reserve in advance: For more planning and certainty, women riders can use Reserve to pre-book trips with women drivers.
- Set a preference: Women riders can set a preference for a woman driver in their app settings. While it’s not guaranteed, turning on the Women Preference increases your chances of being matched with a woman driver.
For Drivers
Women drivers can toggle on the “Women Rider Preference” in their app settings to start receiving trip requests from women riders…
