Uber Rolls Out “Check Your Ride” Feature

Uber wants to make sure that you are getting into the right car.

A new “check your ride” feature will send a push notification to your phone. It will include the driver’s name and photo, car license plate, make and model.

The feature will debut in Columbia, South Carolina. A University of South Carolina student was killed after she mistakenly got into a car she thought was her Uber ride.

“Check Your Ride” will be available nationwide soon.

Do you verify your rideshare before you get in the car?
