DisGo passenger guidelines:

NOTICE: All passengers and drivers are required to wear masks and follow the COVID protocols as outlined in this section.

Please note that trips may include multiple riders. If you require solo rides (no other passengers) as a disability-related accommodation, please contact disability.access@stanford.edu or call 415-404-1059. Scheduling solo rides may lead to longer wait times. All passengers will be accommodated in the order in which they reserve their ride.

• Ride DisGo only when well.
• Stay home and contact your healthcare provider if you are feeling ill.
• Please create as much physical distance as possible between yourself and the driver.
• Cover coughs and sneezes with your upper sleeve or a tissue.
• Use the rear seats when riding on DisGo when possible.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
• Cover your mouth and nose with a cloth face cover.
• Wash your hands thoroughly for a minimum of 20 seconds with soap and water before and after riding. If soap and water are not readily available, use a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol.
• Stanford Transportation reserves the right not to provide service if the guidelines above are not met.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has published guidance on how you can protect yourself and others to slow the spread of COVID-19 when using transportation, including DisGo.
