Beijing "Amnesty" Taxi software fee allocation is not clear

"The thing that can not spend money originally, (now) must want 5 yuan." "Beijing official 96106 call the vehicle platform to take a taxi software to trigger a large number of netizens online" spit slot.

July 1, Beijing Municipal Commission announced the "Beijing Taxi mobile phone call service Management implementation Rules", the mobile phone call service operator application software by the city taxi industry competent department for the record, obtain authorization, access to the industry unified call service platform, and taxi dispatch center "96106" signed a cooperation agreement, Binding services, joint deployment.

and registered drivers, vehicles and other information required by the industry unified Electrical Call Service Platform certification, before the provision of services. This initiative is regarded as a "amnesty" for various kinds of taxi software by the standard market name.

Over a period of time, taxi software has been popular in Beijing, Shanghai and other cities, most of the software to take free or voluntary fare increase by booking 0, 5, 10, 20 yuan, so that passengers quickly call the taxi, taxi drivers can also get higher income, reduce empty rate.

However, the popular taxi software also led to a large number of black cars "a piece", and helped push the phenomenon of a disguised fare increase. This led to the cautious attitude of the local authorities-Shenzhen asked the taxi company to remove the software, the Shanghai and Nanjing authorities put forward a "crackdown" to call the software fare increase service, and Beijing is directly to take the civil software into the official platform of the way.

According to the implementation of the above rules, the Beijing Commission requires private taxi software must be included in the official 96106 platform before it can run, otherwise illegal, into the official platform, the charging standard for instant call service 5 Yuan, 4 hours in advance service fee of 6 yuan.

Earlier, the taxi drivers to the June 1 this year, the opening of the Beijing Taxi Call service platform 96106 response is not positive. Although the Beijing taxi has just increased the price, but because the folk call the vehicle software often has the passenger is willing to give the higher fare increase, can arouse the driver's enthusiasm.

Yu Chen, a researcher at Beijing Institute of Communication and Knowledge, said that before the Beijing taxi more than regular taxis, taxi software is actually the life of the license plate. and taxi software as a new technology means used in the field of taxis, will be the trend.

By the morning, Beijing has launched a public platform for vehicles, but it should also allow private companies to enter, "because it can be used to refer to the competitive approach, to see who is more efficient and to provide better service".

It is not clear how the cost of compulsory income is distributed after all the taxi software is integrated into the unified call management.

Beijing University of Technology, transportation planning and management doctoral tutor Chen Yanyan that, compared with the public service nature of buses, taxis have a certain commercial nature, will be affected by market demand and supply fluctuations. If it is in the rush hour, the contradiction between supply and demand is more prominent period, should allow the price can be appropriate floating.

There is also the view that government departments should avoid excessive intervention in the market, stop the taxi software or "incorporation" of taxi software is not conducive to taxi software industry and taxi industry development.
