Taxi-hailing firm Uber has partnered with road safety experts and local police to design tailor-made safety tips like defensive driving, first aid, for its drivers across Africa and the Middle-East.
The new deal will see Uber Kenya work with Automotive Association of Kenya (AAK) in a series of 30 “Driver’s Safety Tips” workshops to take place in Nairobi, allowing drivers to focus on other tips like traffic rules and vehicle maintenance.
This will serve as a knowledge exchange platform for drivers, giving them an opportunity to discuss their personal and road safety challenges with experts.
“We listened to and incorporated feedback from law enforcement in developing these tips to ensure drivers follow local traffic laws and help protect pedestrians,” said Uber general manager in East Africa Loic Amado.
“Similar to the Riders Safety Tips we launched a couple of months ago, the Driver Safety Tips are designed to help drivers feel empowered to be safe and make safe decisions before, during, and after every ride.”
