In an update that is likely to be quite encouraging for ride-share users, Uber has announced that as of February 9, 2021 (i.e. today) the service will have a new safety feature available to its customers. The new On-Trip Reporting feature enables passengers to alert the business of any behaviour that leaves them feeling uncomfortable as their ride unfolds. While the app has inbuilt systems designed to address urgent circumstances already, this new function would seemingly act as a means of supporting passengers with issues that are not emergencies, but still deserve attention.
