Uber released a friendly reminder to its consumers Thursday about the guidelines, or Community Guidelines, asking users to think about the “Golden Rule”– please avoid having sex while the vehicle remains in movement– prior to hailing an automobile.
As per Recode, UberPool has become a latest form of speed dating and some even deem it much better than using Tinder.
Under the section, “Physical contact with the driver or fellow riders,” Uber composed:
“As our community guidelines make clear, you shouldn’t touch or flirt with other people in the car. As a reminder, Uber has a no sex rule. That’s no sexual conduct with drivers or fellow riders, no matter what. And you should never hit or otherwise hurt a driver or fellow passenger.”
To briefly recap, do not vomit in the Uber, don’t bring weapons in the Uber, do not be impolite or violent in the Uber, and do not flirt in the Uber. But, most importantly, don’t have sex in the Uber’s backseat.
This actually is the most essential guideline. Knowing Uber’s ongoing problem with sexual assault and rape in its automobiles, this makes the guidelines very clear, a little but definite action to make Uber customers feel safe.
