Uber Clarifies Vehicle Age Policy for ZA Drivers
--:--
GUEST - Cassie Jaganyi, Head of Communications for Uber South Africa
Recent media coverage regarding a three-year vehicle age policy for drivers on Uber in South Africa has caused some confusion due to its inaccuracy. Uber would like to take this opportunity to clarify the policy that came into effect in 2022.
While some have understood the policy to mean that all drivers on the platform must drive cars younger than three years old, that is not the case. It applies only to new drivers signing up to the platform.
