Take a look at this post by Uber CEO:

“Do us a favour while you're there. Tell your India team to ensure that rear seatbelts are functional in all your cabs. Not sure why your drivers hide it or disable it in the rear seat. Try taking an Uber to the Bangalore airport, it's scary! No seatbelt, no fare!” shared an X user. “Fantastic to be able to adapt and innovate in the local context,” added another.

“Nice. Hope you have a great trip in India,” joined a third. “You should start these in all major cities of India. Especially in Delhi, Noida, Gurgaon, Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Chennai. If planned well, it can be a major game changer in reducing peak hour traffic congestion in cities,” wrote a fourth.
