This is the strongest level of verification available on Poparide. More info
Members with this badge have verified their driver's license through a biometric check and facial recognition, and their driver's license is valid and has not expired.
We are rolling out this new biometric verification system to a selection of drivers and intend to do a full release in 2024.
Members with this badge have been checked for the name they provided on Poparide to match their government issued ID.
Got it"Please note: (1) The car will be using all four passenger seatbelts between Victoria and Nanaimo. As such, the people in the back will be in close quarters. To make sure the 1.75 hours between Victoria and Nanaimo are comfortable for everyone, please be sure to shower and take care of your hygiene and breath. I only say this because some people that use Poparide are kind of the 'freelance' type and that really won't work tomorrow on this tight segment. (2) Victoria pickup is Tillicum Centre in front of Lowe's in the parking lot. Note, that the pick-up time is changed to 11:15am. There is a black bench that is a good rally point. (3) Seat assignments to Nanaimo Front passenger: Vince Behind the driver: Emily (since anywhere after Nanaimo). Back middle: Katie Behind Vince: Katie's companion. It's based on heights, who knows who, and safety (ie. the short people are behind the driver so I can do shoulder checks easier). As such, please don't negotiate spots among yourselves."
