Bolt, Uber plot joint system to blacklist rogue drivers
In their pitches, the drivers and couriers presented a range of innovative ideas, including the creation of charging stations (stationary and portable) for electric cars and bikes.
Ride-hailing firms, including Bolt and Uber are working on a joint system that will see errant drivers suspended or locked out of all the apps in the push to improve passenger safety.
The common system, in which they will partner with the National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA), will help them deal with drivers who engage in unprofessional behaviour, like sexual harassment or overcharging customers, and then escape punishment by switching to other apps.
