This article gives additional information about the partnership between Nexar and Uber.

The Nexar x Uber Pilot was a partnership between Nexar and Uber wherein in just a few taps, the Nexar app can send drive videos directly to Uber as a supporting evidence when drivers using Uber file a report in their Uber app.

Drivers who took part in the pilot can now share dash cam footage directly with Uber Support when reporting a safety incident, and the Uber app, when in use, will continue to notify riders that their trips may be recorded.

Pilot drivers using a new vehicle or with more than one vehicle need to register their dash cam in order to access these benefits. You can register here: https://drivers.uber.com/deeplink/dashcam_registration

Thanks for your interest in the pilot. The program has concluded and participating drivers are free to continue to use the dash cam with Uber.

No video footage will be sent to Uber Support unless you agree to share videos with them. Nexar will never share any videos with Uber without your consent.

In many states in the US, there are complex laws around whether and how you can record others. The stickers on your car and notification in the Uber app help ensure that all riders (including guests or friends of the Uber account holder) have seen the notice of recording and are not surprised by it, and it may also ultimately help prevent a rare negative reaction to use of the Nexar dash cam. The sticker can also be used to discourage theft or disrespect to your vehicle.

Thanks for your interest in the pilot. The program has concluded and participating drivers are free to continue to use the dash cam with Uber.
