At Ryde, we’re committed to making every trip safe—not just for passengers, but for our valued Driver-Partners too. Practicing safe driving habits ensures smoother journeys and greater peace of mind.
Here are four essential safety tips every Ryde Driver-Partner should follow:

Verify Your Trip Details
Always confirm and check that the passengers’ name and destination matches the information displayed in your Ryde Driver App before starting the trip.

Stay Focused On Driving
Always avoid holding or texting on your phone while driving. Utilise a dashboard mount or a holder to answer calls while ensuring it does not obstruct your view.
To ensure your safety and the reliability of your vehicle or mobility device, we’d like to remind all drivers to carry out regular maintenance. A little routine maintenance goes a long way in keeping your rides safe, smooth, and reliable!Here are some tips to help you stay on track:
a. Stick to the recommended maintenance schedule
Follow the servicing advice from your manufacturer or retailer. It helps spot issues early and keeps your vehicle in tip-top condition.
b. Don’t forget regular inspections
Depending on your vehicle type and age, regular inspections are required to stay roadworthy. You can check the schedule at www.onemotoring.lta.gov.sg.
c. Repair early, avoid bigger problems later
If you notice something off — like strange sounds or parts wearing out — get it checked and fixed early. Head to a reputable workshop you trust.
d. Use proper parts
Always replace parts with those approved by the manufacturer. It keeps things running smoothly and safely.
e. Keep a record of your maintenance
Hold on to receipts or service notes — they come in handy if there’s ever a need to track repairs or checks.Your vehicle is your tool of trade — keeping it in good working condition ensures not just better performance, but also your safety and peace of mind.

Adhere To PUDO Location Regulations
Follow the rules of designed pick-up or drop-off points and ensure it is allowed for private ride-hailing.

Keep Your Car Well Maintained
Routinely check your car’s condition, including tire pressure, fluid levels, brakes, proper lighting and functioning windshield wipers.
Stay Weather-Safe
Singapore’s weather can be unpredictable, so always be prepared.
We recommend all Driver-Partners download and use the myENV app (by NEA) to stay updated on weather conditions while on the road. The app provides:
WBGT readings (Wet Bulb Globe Temperature) – to help monitor outdoor heat risk and avoid heat stress.
Lightning alerts – so you can take precautions during thunderstorms.
Do check the app regularly, especially if you’re waiting outdoors or driving in exposed areas. Your safety matters—stay alert and stay safe.
Refer to myENV for more information.
