(WBAP/KLIF) – Uber has unveiled new safety measures as cities across the country begin to reopen. Beginning Monday, the rideshare company say a driver or delivery person must take a selfie in the app to show that they are wearing a mask or face covering before they can pick up a passenger or make a food delivery. In addition, riders will also be required to confirm they are also wearing a mask. If a driver shows up without a mask, the rider can cancel the trip without a penalty and can report the issue through the app. Uber drivers also won’t be allowed to have anyone sit in the front seat. The company says if it see repeated violations from a rider or a driver, they may be kicked off the platform.
