What Are the Best Practices for PeekUp Drivers to Ensure Passenger Safety?

Updated: Apr 26



Metro Manila's vibrant energy thrives on its complex network of streets. While exciting to explore, navigating these streets can feel daunting for both residents and visitors. At PeekUp, a ride-hailing app prioritizing passenger safety, our drivers play a vital role in creating a secure and positive experience for everyone. Here are some best practices PeekUp drivers can follow to ensure passenger safety:


  • Be Prepared for the Road: Maintaining a clean and well-maintained vehicle goes beyond aesthetics. Regular servicing ensures your car is in top safety condition. This includes checking tire pressure and tread depth, oil levels, and proper functioning of brakes and lights. A safe vehicle minimizes the risk of breakdowns and accidents, keeping everyone on board secure. Additionally, familiarize yourself with the areas you operate in. Knowing efficient routes reduces stress and allows you to focus on defensive driving.


  • Prioritize Passenger Awareness: Transparency is key. Use the PeekUp ride-hailing app for navigation, allowing passengers to track the route and see their estimated arrival time. Maintain clear and professional communication. Inform them promptly about unexpected delays due to traffic or road closures. This reduces passenger frustration and allows them to adjust plans if needed.


  • Maintain a Safe Environment:  Always prioritize passenger safety. Obey all traffic laws and avoid distractions by using a phone mount. Never drive under the influence. Passengers deserve to feel secure knowing their PeekUp driver is focused on the road.


  • Be Aware of Your Surroundings:  Stay vigilant! Pay close attention to traffic patterns, pedestrians, and cyclists. Avoid picking up or dropping off passengers in poorly lit areas. Trust your gut – report the ride to PeekUp immediately if a situation feels unsafe.

  • Utilize Technology for Safety: Modern vehicles are packed with safety features – airbags and blind-spot monitoring – so become familiar with them! Report any malfunctioning features or get your car serviced to fix any major issues with it. Consider installing a dashcam – valuable video evidence in case of an accident.
