Lyft to launch teen accounts two years after Uber

Lyft will officially launch teen accounts, CNBC reported on Feb. 9. CEO David Risher said Lyft delayed the rollout because it put safety first and will offer services designed to strengthen communication between parents and drivers. The program targets riders aged 13 to 17 and includes PIN verification, real-time tracking and recording features. Uber introduced teen accounts in May 2023 and has expanded the service to more than 50 countries.
