☆ Are taxis safer with no driver? These women think so.
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-08 | by ( David Ingram | David Ingram Is A Tech Reporter For Nbc News. | ) www.nbcnews.com time to read: +11 min

Autonomous taxis are winning over women in cities like San Francisco by offering an answer to a long-standing concern about ride-hailing apps: misbehavior by human drivers, especially men. Now, those driver safety concerns are helping to fuel the popularity of autonomous taxis — especially for women traveling alone or at night. About three-quarters of Lyft and Uber drivers are men, according to industry and academic surveys. Lyft said in a statement to NBC News that it continues to try to improve safety, including with driver background checks, driver ratings, driver education and an emergency phone line for passengers. In 2023, Lyft started a feature, Women+ Connect, that allows women or nonbinary drivers to opt in to prefer riders who are women or nonbinary, and vice versa.

And ‘X’ users say eating disorder content flourished on the platform. On Oct. 7, Hamas militants stormed the same base where Lifshitz was previously stationed, killing 15 young women in their assault. Many of the users identified as teen girls and young women, some as young as 13, NBC News found. Three users said that they’ve been exposed to eating disorder posts and communities on X through their algorithm-driven “For You” page, despite not knowingly engaging with such content previously. Despite X’s moderation, at least seven more communities featuring content promoting eating disorders and self-harm were identified.
