So as a driver I have now a filter for better rape and murder victims? Nice!
I assume they’ll probably check with the gender people put on their drivers licenses or something.
Are they checking the customers too? If not, it seems to be an easy way for some weirdos to go around targetting genders they don't like.
Yes, they can in. Non binary licenses are available in all 3 states that they’re piloting in. CA, AZ, and Il all have them.
It's opt-in on both sides.
Thank you, I clearly didn’t read the article.
Would be better if driver meant rider here. Or if either rider or driver could disallow matching with male binary people (or whoever they find offensive)
