It is a simple concept that allows people to get from one place to another. The application is easy to use for any generation and connecting to a driver takes seconds. But despite the easy use of these rideshare applications people should also take steps to protect themselves since there are some safety concerns when using apps such as Uber or Lyft.
Some keys Ovadia Law Group can offer to those taking an Uber or Lyft in West Park include, making sure you check that the license plate of the vehicle you are getting picked up in is the same as mentioned in the app, checking the make and model of the vehicle are the same as listed in the app and checking that the driver confirms who he is picking up. You should never give the driver your name or the name listed in the app, the driver should be able to give you that information.
You never know what they might do with this information. People today tend to be trusting but the legal team at Ovadia Law Group has seen many unfortunate cases where people trust someone they just met. You should also mention to the driver that people are waiting for you at the location you are going or that someone is tracking you for any reason. The driver may have passed a background check but there is no personality test that could truly let a company know their actions and what triggers them.
