Uber starts bike service in Karachi

F.P. Report

KARACHI: Uber, the global smartphone app that seamlessly connects riders to drivers, has launched its bike-sharing service uberMOTO in Karachi.

This service follows the extremely successful launch of uberMOTO in Lahore last month, giving thousands of people access to quick, convenient and affordable transport at the push of a button through the Uber app.

A safety session was held in collaboration with Pakistan Red Crescent Society (PRCS) for the motorbike riders before the launch. The session provided guidance and information to the Uber motorbike-riders on the best road-safety practices to adopt while on the road.

An ‘uberMOTO ride Karachi’ was also held, where Uber showed support to the Karachi biker community and emphasised the use of safety gear when using uberMOTO. Uber also provided helmets to all the bikers that joined the bike ride.
