inDrive underscores safety

Kathmandu, Sept. 14

inDrive has accorded top priority to safety of drivers and passengers, said Roman Ermoshin, Director of Ride-Hailing (APAC) inDrive who is in Kathmandu to observe company operations in the market that it entered recently.

"To uphold our commitment to safety, we have introduced the Safety Pact - an initiative empowering user with dedicated features, tips, and a code of conduct for drivers and passengers. We promote mutual respect and have a zero-tolerance policy for discrimination," he said at an interaction with journalists on Wednesday.  

According to him, by pursuing expansion, growth, customer satisfaction, and safety, the company is well-positioned to continue delivering great results and making a positive impact in the communities it serves, said Ermoshin.

With more than two billion rides completed across the world, inDrive, a global mobility, urban services and community development platform, is disrupting the ride-sharing industry in Nepal by allowing passengers and drivers to negotiate fairer fares among themselves.

inDrive launched its services in Kathmandu in 2022 and since then has been giving customers the liberty to set the price for their rides.

Evolving over the years, inDriver (Independent Drivers) has transformed to become inDrive (Inner Drive) a marketplace of urban services.

Ermoshin said that inDrive exists to prove that ride-hailing apps can and should be more human – because a fair price is something people can agree on, not hope for.

Today, inDrive is the second most downloaded mobility app in the world and serves more than 100 million users worldwide in over 700 cities across 48 countries on five continents.
