This warning comes as reports of riders being targeted by criminals have surged after they agreed to trips directly with drivers, bypassing the app’s critical safety features.
"When a rider accepts a trip outside the Bolt app, we lose visibility of that journey, and so do they," explained Simo Kalajdzic, senior operations manager at Bolt South Africa, through a statement.

Expedition cruises typically sail for at least seven nights and go to hard-to-reach or remote destinations like the Galapagos, Arctic, Alaska, and even narrow passages in Europe that big ships can't access.

Most travelers know the basics of air travel: passport, boarding pass, and maybe a printed itinerary. But one lesser known requirement could derail your trip if you overlook it.
ABC News highlighted a story from Herb Weisbaum, a Consumers' Checkbook contributor known as the Consumer Man, who nearly missed his return flight from London because of a rule at Heathrow Airport.
Weisbaum explained to ABC’s Troubleshooters that when he and his wife tried to check in for their Delta flight, the kiosk demanded the credit card used to purchase the tickets. Without it, they couldn’t move forward.

For a little while after the birth of our first, we managed to cling to these aspirations. With just one toddler, my husband and I managed to briefly continue our pre-childbearing escapades: a term-time jolly to Turks and Caicos; a 12-hour night flight to a safari in Botswana – the jerky, rutting off-roader even lulling our adventurous firstborn to sleep, we boasted.
