There’s a brand-new option on the Uber app that’s all about you. Uber just launched the ‘Women Drivers’ feature in Saudi Arabia, a game-changing update that lets women book rides exclusively with female drivers.
So if you’ve ever felt more at ease riding with a woman behind the wheel, this one’s for you. Whether you’re heading to work, meeting friends, or just running errands, now you have the choice to ride your way, with more comfort and peace of mind.
It works just like UberX. Same smooth experience, but with the added bonus of knowing your driver will be a woman. You can even schedule your ride up to 30 minutes in advance, which is perfect for those early meetings or airport runs.
Youssef Abouseif, Uber’s General Manager in Saudi Arabia, said it best: “The launch of the ‘Women Drivers’ product in Saudi Arabia reflects our commitment to empowering women and supporting their mobility and economic independence.”
This update doesn’t just give you more control, it’s also opening doors for more Saudi women to join the platform as drivers. More opportunities, more freedom, and more support for women on both sides of the ride.
So next time you open the app, look for the ‘Women Drivers’ option and give it a try. Because feeling safe, seen, and supported on your ride should always be an option.
