Too Long; Didn't Read
For the second time, Uber is without a license in London. The city’s transport regulator has stripped the ride-sharing giant of its license after authorities found that over 14,000 trips involved drivers with fake or 'borrowed' identities. Uber failed to adequately verify the identities of the drivers, with the regulator claiming that they had noticed several breaches that impacted passengers and their safety. In the wake of several other incidents, reports state that the cab aggregator is looking to integrate facial recognition technology to secure their identity verification process.
