Love some competition and love the idea of this new company.

A new rideshare app in Colorado aims to revolutionize the way drivers and riders connect. Driver’s Co-Op Colorado addresses the concerns of rideshare drivers regarding pay and working conditions while offering riders a familiar and affordable option.

The app operates like existing platforms Lyft and Uber, allowing riders to request rides and drivers to accept requests on their phones. They can provide more affordable fares for riders by cutting out the middleman.

Safety is another cornerstone of the Driver’s Co-op model. All drivers undergo thorough background checks and must adhere to strict safety regulations, including the installation of dash cams—an industry first in Colorado.

Since its launch, Driver’s Co-op has quickly gained traction, with over 2,000 drivers onboarding and approximately 6,500 riders downloading the app.

The app is available for download on smartphones. For more information visit: https://www.coloradodrivers.coop/ride-with-us/
