Subsequently, each of these cases is carefully reviewed to ensure that the driver still meets the eligibility criteria to continue driving on the Lobon platform, thus maintaining a high standard of safety for all users..
Drivers instant identification
To further safeguard rider safety and security, Lobon periodically requires drivers to submit a selfie, which is then cross-referenced with their on-file identification. This extra step helps confirm that the registered driver is indeed the one operating the vehicle, providing riders with an added level of assurance and minimizing the risk of unauthorized individuals posing as Lobon drivers.
