- Verify Your Driver: Prioritize safety by verifying that the driver and vehicle details match the app’s information before getting into the vehicle. Check the driver’s name, photo, and license plate number to ensure a secure journey.
- Communicate Clearly: Effective communication is crucial. Provide clear instructions to your driver regarding your pickup location, route preferences, or additional stops. Clear communication contributes to a smooth and efficient journey.
- Respect is Mutual: The Bolt platform upholds a code of conduct promoting respect and discouraging discrimination. Be polite and respectful to foster a comfortable environment for both riders and drivers.
- Rate and Provide Feedback: After your ride, take a moment to rate your driver and provide feedback through the Bolt app. Your feedback is valuable, recognizing excellent service and maintaining a high level of overall service quality.
