2. PROFESSIONAL AND QUALITY SERVICE
a) You shall provide safe and clean transportation to all passengers. The safety and comfort of passengers and drivers on the Grab platform is of utmost priority.

Further, illegal substances and open containers of alcohol are not permitted in drivers’ vehicles. If a passenger believes a driver may be under the influence of drugs or alcohol, he or she has the right to end the trip immediately and alert us via HelpCenter.
c) You are prohibited from having or keeping weapons of any kind or description in your vehicle or on your person for any reason whatsoever.
d) The Company takes a serious view on reckless driving which endangers passengers and/or other road users and this includes, inter alia:
• Driving against the direction of traffic
• Failure to comply with speed limit
• Failure to conform with traffic light
• Using your mobile phone without any hands free kit while driving
• Failure to use the indicator signal prior to changing lanes or turning into a junction
• Breaches of any other traffic laws
e) You shall always be properly and decently attired (at a minimum, you shall wear long trousers and covered shoes) and exhibit good mannerism as well as communicate with your passengers politely.
f) You are prohibited from driving without any valid license, insurance policy and/or business licenses or permits required to provide transportation for hire.
g) We recommend that you always remind your passengers to wear a seatbelt (or helmet as the case may be) while riding in your vehicle.
h) Avoid violent and aggressive behaviour at all times. With safety and security as its key pillar, the Company does not condone any form of violence or aggression. Drivers must not exhibit aggressive behavior, including getting into verbal disputes with passengers, using vulgarity or insinuation or making threats or physical blows with the passenger. In the event of the situation getting out of hand, never take matters into your own hands or escalate the tension (i.e. harass or make threats whether the ride is ongoing or has ended). Always choose to report the case to the Company as soon as possible. We aim to serve all parties impartially and will take such actions as appropriate.
i) You are strictly forbidden from committing any form of sexual offence, including making lewd comments/ texts, sexual harassment, unwanted physical contact, unlawful restraint, drugging, molestation and rape. These are criminal offences under the law and a serious violation of the Company’s safety policy. Offenders will be prosecuted against the law.
j) Bear in mind that harassment differs according to societal and personal norms — commenting on appearance, asking overly personal questions and infringing into personal space are generally deemed inappropriate. We urge you to be mindful of other users’ privacy and personal space. Texting or calling your passengers outside of professional grounds is both a form of harassment and a breach to his or her entitlement to personal security and data protection.
k) As a responsible transport provider, you are encouraged to provide assistance to handicapped passengers especially when entering or alighting your vehicle.
l) You shall accede to reasonable requests from your passengers such as lowering the air-conditioning and radio volume. You may help passengers with their luggage if your physical ability permits.
m) With regards to visually impaired passengers who are accompanied by their guide dogs, you are encouraged to accept such bookings if it doesn’t offend the tenets of your religion.
n) Knowledge of traffic conditions such as road constructions, major accidents or outdoor events which may delay a trip is deemed an advantage in your work and you are encouraged to always be alert to such developments. Do inform your passengers if you are running late.
o) In the event your passenger leaves behind his/her belongings (including cash) in your vehicle, you are required to:
• notify the Company within 4 hours of discovery; and
• return the same to the passenger concerned or to the Company within 48 hours of discovery.
p) Honour a booking you have accepted. This is very important in building passenger confidence and encourages more passengers to use our platform. Having more passengers means more jobs for drivers as a whole. You are also advised to press ‘pick-up’ and ‘drop-off’ button only when the passenger is on board and when the passenger has alighted from your car respectively.
q) Do not transfer a job to other drivers or any other person. If you are unable to pick up a passenger due to an emergency, please inform the passenger immediately before cancelling the booking. You are strongly encouraged not to cancel jobs except in an emergency (e.g. car breakdown).
r) Wait for your passenger to arrive at the pick-up point. Driving off without waiting for them provides a very negative experience for your customer. Please call your passenger after waiting for at least 3 minutes to confirm if they still require a ride. Please inform the passenger and our Customer Service if you are unable to wait further.
s) You shall not refuse to provide services based on a person’s race, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation, sex, marital status, gender identity, age or any other characteristic protected under law. This type of behavior can result in termination of user access to the Grab platform. It is disrespectful to make derogatory or discriminatory remarks about a person or group whether or not the passenger belongs to the group.
t) Do not set your own fares (e.g. charge per trip) as this may be considered as overcharging. Collect the correct fare according to the meter plus other charges as set by your respective companies, or the platform.
u) Do not solicit passengers to make personal or extra booking arrangements. This goes against our principle of assigning the nearest vehicle to the passenger. You are also depriving your passenger from getting a vehicle in the most efficient way.
v) Do not recommend other ride booking apps to your passengers. This practice is annoying and unprofessional to passengers.
w) Passengers do appreciate honesty on the part of drivers. Hence, you shall provide your service that is based on this principle. Acts of cheating such as failing to give correct change for cash payment or taking a longer route than necessary (unless there is a valid reason for it or specifically requested by the passenger) is prohibited.
x) You are strictly prohibited from contacting your passenger through any channel or platforms unless it is for purposes related to the job booking made by such passenger.
y) You must not have another person inside the car during the time operating as a GrabCar driver.
z) Respect your passenger’s privacy. You MUST keep confidential all your passenger’s personal information (i.e. name, mobile number and address) that comes into your possession. Do not disclose or share any of your passenger’s personal information with anyone, whether your friends or family members, or other passengers, drivers or members of the public.
aa) You shall not ask passengers to change payment method after accepting a job (Eg: Asking passengers to pay by cash instead of credit card).
bb) You must only use the vehicle that corresponds to the vehicle description which has been provided by you to the Company for provision of the transportation services.
cc) Minimum credit wallet top up amount via all channels (bank transfer, mobile billing, transfer from cash wallet, etc) is [USD__]. Any actions of manipulating the assignment system will be deemed abuse of the system and may result in your access being terminated.

We also enforce continual evaluation of a driver’s suitability and performance, and provide feedback accordingly. In most cases, we aim to work together with the driver via feedback sessions, training events, workshops and audits etc. Results from these efforts depend on receptivity of the driver.
c) You are required to attend the training sessions that are arranged by the Company or its agents unless you are faced with an emergency or due to other unavoidable reasons. In such situations, replacement sessions may be arranged at a later date.
d) The Company maintains a zero-tolerance policy regarding all infringements and violations of this Code of Conduct and the Driver acknowledges that this may result in suspension or termination of user access to the Grab platform.
