Before doors close
The pre-boarding verification gate
The golden rule: if every identity check is not clear, do not enter the vehicle.
- 01
Confirm the trip PIN
The rider shares the unique trip PIN only after the correct vehicle and driver have arrived.
Do not board until the app confirms
- 02
Triple-check identity
Match the driver portrait, vehicle make and colour, and full registration plate against the app.
Any mismatch means step away
- 03
Confirm passenger count
Drivers compare the waiting group with the declared party and legal vehicle capacity.
Unsafe overloading may be refused
- 04
Use safety cancellation
Either party can end the pickup when identity, conduct or surroundings create a genuine safety concern.
Safety reports enter review
Designed for local conditions
Layered protection, not a single feature
SIA's safety model combines prevention, visibility, reporting and human review across the trip lifecycle.
Driver identity screening
Identity, driving credentials and applicable background checks form part of driver eligibility.
Live trip visibility
Route and trip-status sharing helps trusted contacts follow an active journey.
Private safety controls
Safety actions are designed to be accessible without exposing unnecessary personal information.
Incident escalation
Structured reports preserve key trip details for support review and appropriate emergency escalation.
In an immediate emergency: move to a safe location when possible and contact South African emergency services. In-app tools supplement—they do not replace—police, medical or emergency response services.
Safety questions
Clear answers before your next trip
Practical guidance for common pickup, verification and review concerns.
What if the driver asks me to board before trip verification?
Do not enter. Confirm the driver, vehicle and registration details first, then use the trip PIN according to the in-app instructions. Move to a safe public place and report a mismatch.
Can a driver refuse an unsafe or overloaded pickup?
Yes. A driver may decline when the declared passenger count exceeds safe capacity, identity details do not match, prohibited conduct is observed or another genuine safety concern exists.
How can an unfair review be challenged?
Use the in-app review-dispute flow. Support can assess trip records and relevant communications while applying the platform's evidence and privacy rules.
What information should I check before boarding?
Check the driver's portrait and name, vehicle make, colour and full registration plate. Do not rely only on a driver calling your name; ask them to confirm the booked rider details through the app workflow.
Ride with peace of mind. Drive with confidence.
Join a mobility community built around verified identities, visible expectations and mutual accountability.
