Wear a mask
- Recommend wearing a mask in public settings, such as public and mass transportation, at events and gatherings, and anywhere you cannot exercise social distancing measures.
Avoid touching surfaces
- Avoid contact with surfaces frequently touched by passengers or drivers, such as the door frame and handles, windows, and other vehicle parts. If you must touch these surfaces, use a hand sanitizer containing at least 60% alcohol as soon as possible afterwards.
Social distance
- When possible, consider traveling during non-peak hours when there are likely to be fewer passengers.
- When possible, sit in the back of larger vehicles such as vans so you can remain at least six feet away from the driver and other passengers during the trip.
- As much as possible, limit close contact with the driver. It may not be possible to stay at least 6 feet away from the driver at all times. Ask the driver to wear a mask and to practice proper hand hygiene immediately before and after providing assistance.
Improve ventilation
- Ask the driver to improve the ventilation in the vehicle if possible, such as opening the windows or setting the air ventilation/air conditioning on non-recirculation mode.
Practice hand hygiene
- After leaving the vehicle, use hand sanitizer containing at least 60% alcohol.
- When you arrive at your destination, wash your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
