Honda dan Uber Eats Jepang akan Melakukan Uji Demonstrasi Bersama Menggunakan Aplikasi Penilaian Keselamatan Berkendara Sepeda Motor Honda.
— Verifying the effectiveness of the riding assessment in enhancing safety awareness and improving riding behaviors of Uber delivery partners —
Honda Motor Co., Ltd. (Honda) today announced plans to conduct joint demonstration testing in September 2026, with Uber Eats Japan, Inc. (Uber Eats Japan), using its smartphone app designed for motorcycle safety riding assessment.
This demonstration testing will be conducted as part of the “Uber Eats Safe Driving Campaign,” organized by Uber Eats Japan for its motorcycle delivery partners. By combining the visualized results of an app-based riding behavior assessment with Uber’s unique incentive program, the two companies will verify the effectiveness of the assessment and the incentives in enhancing safety awareness and improving riding behavior of Uber motorcycle delivery partners.
Striving to realize a collision-free society for everyone sharing the road, Honda has been pursuing various safety initiatives from the perspective of both hardware and software under its global safety slogan of “Safety for Everyone.” As future milestones, Honda is aiming to reduce global traffic collision fatalities involving Honda motorcycles and automobiles by half*1 by 2030 and striving to realize its ambitious goal of “zero traffic collision fatalities” by 2050.
In an effort to reduce motorcycle collisions, which Honda has identified as one of its key priorities, and also for the further promotion of safe motorcycle riding, Honda is collaborating with Uber Eats Japan, which operates Uber Eats, a food delivery platform used by a large number of motorcycle delivery partners, to promote safe riding by providing more riders with extensive traffic safety knowledge and technologies Honda has amassed over many years.
This demonstration testing will be conducted with motorcycle delivery partners of Uber Eats in Japan, who have applied to participate in the “Uber Safe Driving Campaign.”
Using the motorcycle safe riding assessment app developed by Honda, the riding behavior of each participating delivery partner while making deliveries will be analyzed and assessed*2, with the results to be displayed as safe riding scores. By scoring individual riding operations, such as acceleration, braking and steering, the riding habits that riders may not easily recognize on their own will be visualized to help them improve riding behavior.
In addition, by incorporating the score-based ranking and/or incentive systems, the two companies will aim to help more riders to develop and maintain good riding behavior for enhanced safety.
Through this demonstration testing that combines a riding assessment with an incentive program, the two companies will verify the effectiveness of this approach in enhancing safety awareness and improving riding behavior of Uber motorcycle delivery partners.
