If you like taking Uber and you don’t want your Uber account suspended, you’ll be voluntarily wearing a mask when you ride, beginning Monday, May 18, 2020.
Lyft is already requiring its drivers, delivery people and riders to wear masks, and Uber decided to follow. In fact, when you use your Uber app, you’ll be asked to confirm that you not only are wearing a mask, but that you’ve washed and sanitized your hands. Failure to comply will result in your account being suspended.
As an additional “precaution,” UberX drivers will transport no more than three passengers at a time.
