Uber plans to launch a new safety feature to allow pilots to board the appropriate vehicles.
The optional four-digit PIN verification system, in which runners will say the number aloud to their driver before they can start the race, comes after the macabre murder of a South Carolina student who did headlines around the world.
In the case of Samantha Josephson, the 21-year-old University of South Carolina student was riding in a vehicle assuming it was her Uber ride, while that was not the case.
Previously, drivers were asked to check the model and license plate number of a vehicle to make sure they were at the right car.
Uber Product Management Director Sachin Kansal presented the film on stage at an event held in San Francisco on Thursday.

Uber is also working on an ultrasound technology to communicate with the driver's phone to perform the same check automatically and present the product during the event.
Security has been a major concern for Uber for the past two years or so since CEO Dara Khosrowshahi took office. The company has launched a series of new security products in recent months, while stories of attacks targeting both bikers and drivers continue to appear. New features include a "panic button" that connects runners directly to emergency services, as well as a "driving control" that warns Uber security personnel if a ride is occurring. 39, deviates from the planned trajectory.
However, the Washington Post reported Wednesday that the company's security team was often instructed to protect company interests ahead of runners and often prevented the company from proactively sharing incidents with authorities.
On Thursday, Uber also announced the creation of a text-based emergency service for runners who may not be able to talk on the phone in their current situation. This service can also share the location in real time with emergency responders.

Drivers will also soon have to use an enhanced verification tool, which not only requires them to take a selfie, but also move their heads to make sure they match the downloaded ID.
