KYIV, Oct 20 – Uber taxi service has launched Pool Chance in Kyiv, which provides an opportunity to share a ride with another passenger in one car.

"Pool Chance is an option in the Uber app that allows you to share a ride with another passenger in the same direction. Maximum two people can share a ride in one car, and the cost of the ride for each of them will be cheaper than in Uber X," Uber said in a statement.

Kyiv will be one of the first cities in the world to offer this new pilot service.
