Women, do you feel this is a service you would use?

Do you feel nervous traveling alone with an unknown male driver?

If you are a female Uber driver, would you prefer only driving female passengers?

The pilot project will soon roll out in select cities around the nation, including Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Detroit, in the next few weeks.

Uber added, "When we first launched Women Rider Preference in Saudi Arabia in 2019 following a landmark law granting women the right to drive, the response was overwhelmingly positive. Since then the feature has expanded to 40 countries, completing over 100 million trips."
