Ride-hailing service Uber is rolling out a face recognition feature on its app to help verify its registered drivers and prevent impostors from picking up passengers, business site Quartz reports.
The article explains that the new safety feature asks drivers to “periodically” take selfies in the Uber app before they accept rides.
If the photo of the driver doesn’t match the one registered to the account, then that account is blocked, it says.
The same feature has also been rolled out in India and China.
