Safety at Mota

Trust starts with clear information.

Mota reviews key identity and vehicle information so you can make a more informed choice. Verification reduces uncertainty; it does not remove every risk.

What Mota reviews

  • Identity information through an approved verification provider.
  • A current driver’s licence submitted by the driver.
  • Vehicle registration documents.
  • Photos of the car inside and out, so only clean cars are listed.
  • The public profile before approval.

The clean car standard

Comfort should not be a gamble. Every car is reviewed inside and out before it goes live, and a car that is dirty, damaged or poorly kept is not approved. After a trip you can tell us privately if a car was not clean, and listings that fall below the standard are removed.

Before a trip

  • Compare the driver, vehicle, plate and verification information.
  • Keep your arrangement in Mota messages where possible.
  • Confirm the driver and vehicle match the profile before entering.
  • Share your plan with someone you trust.

What Mota does not guarantee

Mota is a marketplace, not the transport operator. Drivers are independent and riders arrange trips directly with them. Use your own judgement and leave any situation that does not feel right.
