New Privacy Rules for Ride-Share: Opt-Out of In-Car Cameras
This law requires ride-share companies (TNCs) to notify customers if a driver's vehicle has a camera recording passengers. Citizens gain the explicit right to opt out of such rides, significantly enhancing their privacy control during transportation. The act also strictly limits how and why companies can retain passenger recordings.
Key points
Ride-share apps must clearly notify passengers if the vehicle they are matched with has a passenger-recording camera.
Customers must be given an easy, accessible option to refuse a ride in a camera-equipped vehicle.
Passenger recordings can only be retained for reporting crimes, insurance purposes, or verifying terms of service compliance.
