## Content

## In Short
Honda and Uber Eats Japan will run a September 2026 demonstration test to see if rider scoring plus incentives can improve motorcycle delivery safety.

## What Happened
Honda said it will work with Uber Eats Japan on a joint pilot in September 2026. The test will use Honda’s motorcycle safe riding assessment smartphone app to analyse how Uber Eats motorcycle delivery partners ride during deliveries.

The app scores riding behaviours like acceleration, braking, and steering. The goal is to make habits visible, in the same way a fitness app turns daily movement into a clear score.

Uber Eats Japan will pair those scores with an incentive program. This can include rankings and rewards to encourage riders to keep safer habits over time. Participants will be riders who apply to join Uber’s Safe Driving Campaign.

Honda said the app runs in the background, so riders do not need to touch the phone while riding. The company also noted the scores are indicators, not a guarantee of accident-free riding.

## Why It Matters
Motorcycle delivery is growing in many markets, including across Africa, and safety is a constant challenge. Delivery work often means time pressure, long hours, and heavy city traffic.

A scoring app plus incentives is a common pattern in fleet and insurance programs. It turns safety into measurable data that can be tracked week by week. If the Japan pilot shows behaviour changes, similar models could be adapted for other markets and delivery platforms.

For platforms like [Uber Eats](/uber-eats), the bigger question is whether incentives can reduce incidents without cutting delivery speed. For Honda, it is a chance to prove that software, not only vehicle hardware, can improve real-world riding behaviour at scale.
