The COVID-19 pandemic has changed how we do life. You’re now more careful about disinfecting surfaces to keep hygienically safe. Here’s what you can do to improve your hygienic safety in your vehicle.
Go cardless
Make cardless payments when paying for fuel at the filling station, or when buying food at the drive-thru. If you have to handle cash, always sanitize your hands after handling it.
Remember: you can use the tap-and-go payment function on your Multiply Money card to limit contact with surfaces.
Sanitize common touchpoints
If you share a vehicle with other people, always wear a mask in the vehicle, and sanitize surfaces like the steering wheel, dashboard, cup holders and door handles as you would other surfaces around the home.
Personal hygiene
- Remember to wash your hands for at least 20 seconds with soap and water, or an antibacterial solution with at least 60% alcohol.
- Avoid touching your nose, eyes and mouth.
- Always cough and sneeze into your elbow.
Tips for public transport use during the COVID-19 pandemic
If you use public transport, like cab services, busses, the train and taxis, here’s what you can do to improve your safety.
- Always carry your own sanitizer to use when you need it.
- Wear a face mask.
- Avoid touching your face, nose and eyes
- Cough and sneeze into your elbow.
