Uber launches new rider verification program as a safety measure for drivers across the US
Briefly

Uber's expansion of its rider verification program aims to enhance safety by cross-checking rider information with trusted databases and offering riders verified badges, improving confidence and reducing fraud.
The company states it is taking action to deter fraudulent behavior, declaring that the verification program is optional, but unverified riders might experience longer ETAs and pickup times.
With 'Record My Ride,' drivers can record video and audio during trips, ensuring that all recordings are encrypted and only accessible for review by Uber when necessary.
Additionally, the introduction of PIN verification will help drivers confirm the identity of their passengers, further enhancing the safety measures being implemented by Uber.
