Uber Changes Policy To Prohibit Guns In Cars
Ride-hailing company Uber has changed its policy to prohibit drivers and passengers from carrying guns in cars for trips arranged using its digital service.
Uber's updated legal page on its website includes a policy prohibiting "firearms of any kind in a vehicle" operated by an Uber driver, with violators potentially losing access to the app.
"We have adopted a no-firearms policy to ensure that both riders and drivers feel safe and comfortable on the platform," Uber's Matt McKenna said in a statement to the New Republic, which first reported the change in policy.
"We made this policy change after assessing existing policies and carefully reviewing recent feedback from both riders and driver-partners," McKenna added.
