Female-Focused Rideshare Services

The Pink Car Service Caters to Women, Seniors and the Disabled

The western Canadian city of Calgary is all set to be home to a new rideshare service, called the Pink Car Service, that is designed to cater specifically to women, senior citizens, people living with disabilities and other vulnerable sectors of society.

The Pink Car Service, which can be used on smartphones via an iTunes and Android app, largely employs female drivers to lend an added sense of security to women looking for rides. What's more, all drivers are put through a highly rigorous and selective training and application process.

But what truly makes this rideshare service unique is the fact that it also requires customers to go through a screening process, ensuring that both drivers and passengers can enjoy peace of mind.
