    I assume they’ll probably check with the gender people put on their drivers licenses or something.

      Are they checking the customers too? If not, it seems to be an easy way for some weirdos to go around targetting genders they don’t like.

      They can’t really check that you’re non binary, that’s not a sex that appears on most (any?) drivers licenses/ID.

      I think this case is far fetched, the ride share company has your info which makes the legal case against you a slam dunk.

        Yes, they can in. Non binary licenses are available in all 3 states that they’re piloting in. CA, AZ, and Il all have them.

          That’s actually really cool to hear. Where I live it’s still “sex: M/F” but trans people are able to get it changed.
