    Bolt’s Latest Attempt to Keep You Alive: Rider Verification and More Safety Features

    Are you tired of getting ripped off or worse, by the people you’re picking up from? Well, Bolt’s got a new trick up its sleeve – Rider Verification. The e-hailing app is rolling out a new feature that requires riders to upload a selfie before they can place an order. Because, who doesn’t love a good selfie?

    But that’s not all. Bolt’s also introducing Trip Count and Driver Alerts to keep you safe on the roads. Trip Count gives you an idea of how many trips the rider has taken on the platform, while Driver Alerts flag areas where high volumes of safety incidents have been reported.

    But let’s get real, folks. These features are just Band-Aids on a bullet wound. We need real change, real accountability, and real consequences for those who don’t play by the rules.

    Bolt’s acting head of regulatory and policy, Weyinmi Aghadiuno, says the new features are part of the company’s ongoing investment in safety features. But we all know that safety is just a PR stunt until there are real consequences for those who break the rules.

    So, the next time you’re picking up a ride, remember: you’re not just hailing a taxi, you’re putting your life in the hands of a stranger. Stay safe out there, folks!
