Every day, Bolt Food couriers-partners help thousands of people enjoy great meals quickly and conveniently. But above all, safety comes first.

To make every delivery safer and more confident, we’re launching a new initiative — the Courier Safety Principles.
These five key habits are designed to help couriers stay alert, ride responsibly, and deliver with care in every situation.

The 5 Core Safety Principles

1. Stay Sharp, Stay Safe
Your attention is your best protection. Avoid distractions, stay focused, and anticipate what’s happening on the road around you.

2. Ride with Respect
Follow traffic rules, give way to pedestrians, be aware of other road users, and set a good example for others.

3. Gear Up the Right Way
Before each ride, check your bike, wear a helmet, and use reflectors. It only takes a minute, but it can save your life

4. Handle with Care
Secure the food properly, ride smoothly, and deliver it the way you’d want it delivered to you. Small details make a big difference.

5. Respect Your Limits
Know when to rest. Riding tired is risky — both for you and for everyone else on the road. Even a few minutes of rest can help you stay focused and safe on the road.

Together for Safer Streets

With this initiative we aim to strengthen awareness and responsibility within our courier community. Over the next few weeks, we’ll take a closer look at each principle — sharing practical advice, real examples, and tips for safer, smoother deliveries every day.

A safer city starts with us.
Every responsible choice on the road helps make our streets better and safer for everyone.
