Uber’s women-only option goes nationwide in the US - AP News

Uber has expanded its women-only ride option, "Women+," nationwide across the United States, according to AP News. This feature allows women and non-binary drivers to select preferences for picking up only women and non-binary riders. The expansion follows successful pilot programs in several cities, including Phoenix, San Diego, and Chicago, which began in 2023. The initiative aims to enhance safety and comfort for drivers and riders who prefer these specific matches. This rollout could influence ride-sharing safety protocols and user preferences across the industry.
