> To signal to passengers that you won’t record them during the ride

I doubt this would even be a concern. Many Uber/Lyft drivers already record interior and exterior views for the duration of every ride. And I don't see anything wrong with that. Hell, think about:

"The rider after you reported damage to the car that you didn't report. Therefore you did it and are responsible for paying for it."

"Where's your proof? Maybe I just didn't notice the damage and it was the rider before me -- it's not my job to inspect your cars. Or maybe the rider after me damaged the car -- possibly even on purpose -- and then blamed me."

They'd be foolish not to record every single ride, from multiple angles if possible.
