Follow the law
This section is based on laws and regulations that everyone must follow.
For example, using mConnect apps to commit any crime or to violate any other law is prohibited.
Auto seats
Drivers and riders should comply with local laws when traveling with infants and small children.
When riding with children, it’s the account holder's responsibility to provide and fit a suitable
auto seat.
Tips for drivers
When picking up riders traveling with small children, you can give them extra time to properly install
a auto seat before driving off. If they don’t have the appropriate auto seat or you’re not comfortable with
a rider installing one in your auto, you can cancel the ride. Note that refusing or canceling trips on this
basis will not impact your driver rating.
Follow all laws
