Ride-sharing taxi apps Uber, Lyft and Sidecar have been asked by US lawmakers to adopt fingerprint-based background checks for their drivers, reports PC World.

The news follows similar security measures in India, where Uber was temporarily banned from operating in Delhi after the alleged rape of a female passenger by one of its drivers.
