NCW proposes panic buttons, route alerts and 24×7 monitoring for women’s cab safety
- The National Commission for Women has issued new safety guidelines for women using app-based cabs.
- It recommends physical panic buttons, real-time route alerts and monitoring of unusual or prolonged stops during rides.
- Cab platforms should run 24×7 command centres, verify drivers and vehicles, and strengthen late-night ride monitoring.
- Women travelling alone may also get an option to request a woman driver, depending on availability and feasibility.
