Uber Announces Safety Initiative 

(Columbia, SC) -- Uber has a change it hopes will prevent another tragedy like the one that killed a USC student. 

The ridesharing company recently announced a new push alert called 'Check Your Ride' that gives users a checklist to make sure they're getting into the right car. 

USC student Samantha Josephson was killed last month when she got into a car she mistakenly thought was her Uber ride. 

USC's student body president tells ABC Columbia it's exciting that Uber is responding to calls for change.
