The law enforcement team punished the private car owners who operated illegally under the banner of special vehicles. At the same time, the passengers favored by the car service why is placed in the "dilemma" Vortex, the controversy is the focus of where?
-Beijing Traffic Law Enforcement Corps stance
No fine right to the software platform of the calling vehicle
The day before yesterday, the Beijing Traffic Law Enforcement corps in the capital airport seized private car change body, said, at present, in accordance with the provisions of the private car owners at the highest 20,000 yuan in fines. But what about the software providers that provide information for the illegal operation of private cars?
Yesterday, Beijing Traffic Law Enforcement Corps spokesman Liang Jianwei told the Jinghua Times reporter, law enforcement Corps has the right to punish private car owners, under the existing law, law Enforcement Corps can interview drop car, easy to use the vehicle operator, advised its rectification, but can not the illegal operation of its organization to punish the behavior. Shanghai passed legislation has been implemented by the basis of regulation, but the eye
The laws of the former Beijing are still being pushed.
In addition, the Beijing Traffic Law Enforcement Corps can carry out a case transfer to the software operators, before, the network supervision departments, industry and commerce, taxation, transport Bureau and other departments have opened a meeting, how to transfer, to whom, there is no result.
Last August, "Shanghai Municipal vehicle illegal Passenger transport measures" issued, requiring the vehicle information service providers to the traffic administration to provide drivers and vehicles of information, for the determined not to have the qualification of operation, service providers may not provide call vehicle information services. In case of breach of the above requirements, the management will impose a fine of 30,000-100,000 yuan on the service provider.
Not all limousine services are illegal
Prior to this, the operators of the car service mentioned many times that the software platform only provided information services, while all vehicles engaged in rental operations were from formal leasing companies, and the drivers were dispatched from the service companies, and the software platform only served to send information. "Our mode of operation is no problem, otherwise the government will not let us exist for so long." "The owner of the drop car said.
Liang Jianwei that, from the current view, the Law Enforcement Corps check all the specialized
All cars for private cars, and from the survey of a year, the majority of the drivers of these cars should be private car owners, for such a car service under the guise of illegal operation of the form, law enforcement Corps to resolutely combat.
In addition, the vehicle software platform for vehicles from the formal leasing companies, drivers from the Labor dispatch, "If this mode of operation, I did not say that it is illegal," Liang Jianwei said.
Drop the responsibility of software vendors
Drop car related person in charge to accept the Beijing Times interview, said, at present, the mode of the drop car is the software service provider and the formal rental companies, labor companies to sign contracts, service providers only provide information services, not engaged in rental operations. For many times seized by the car in fact for private cars, the person in charge said, drop car rental company with the contract signed, if the leasing company itself using private car owners drop is not good intervention, can only say that strengthen supervision and review. Last August, the owner of the easy to use car also gave a similar reply to the Beijing Times reporter, that is, to strengthen the review and management. But more than half a year has passed, easy to use cars are still repeatedly found to use the illegal operation of private cars.
Yesterday, Liang Jianwei said, since last year, Beijing seized the drop of the car, easy to use vehicles and all software services providers to provide all the car for private cars. After the seizure, the driver also said that he and the leasing company signed a contract, but so far no driver has submitted a similar contract.
"Drivers only say that all recruitment and training processes are dripping, easy to complete, there is no leasing company is difficult to clarify." "Liang Jianwei told the Jinghua Times reporter, according to the" Car rental management measures ", all rental vehicles must be hung in the operator's name, whether it is a private car or leasing company's cars, drip in the registration of vehicle driving licence information can be seen at a glance. That is to say, drop the responsibility of illegal operation of private car to leasing company is to shirk responsibility.
-Survey
Just after the new Year's Day of 2015, Shenyang taxi drivers began to protest the rise of cars and "black car" linked to the issue of rental platform bleaching; January 6, the Beijing Traffic Law Enforcement Corps law enforcement officers in the capital Airport T3 terminal raided 3 "car", all for the illegal operation of private cars. About car rental areas, inadequate vehicle source, regulatory norms lag caused a large influx of private cars.
The platform is crazy rob a person to dig a car
In mid-December 2014, Baidu announced a strategic stake in the international taxi software Uber, announcing the car business bat (Baidu, Ali, Tencent) "Three Kingdoms kill" situation stereotypes, in August 2014 Baidu had a stake of about 300 million U.S. dollars easy to use vehicles. And in the taxi software form oligarch situation, Ali department Quick taxi launched a car business, Tencent drop a taxi also launched a drop car business. At the same time, its own leasing company resources of AA Car rental and Shenzhou special vehicles in the field also from a faction.
All the players gather around the car rental market, for a time, with red envelopes, back to the present, vouchers to carry out the war; to the taxi company
Digging people, to classified information Web site posting, cash rewards as a means to rob the driver war, to draw up leasing companies, revitalize the Enterprise owned Che Yuan as a means of car-snatching war. About car rental platform invariably said, orders in short supply is the current market development of the biggest bottleneck, so the contention of the vehicle source is the key to competition.
Business Vehicle driver Part-time car
However, according to the reporter understands that the car leasing company's vehicle operating licence is limited, before the purchase of vehicles to the relevant departments to apply for indicators. In Beijing, for example, there are about 1000 leasing companies in Beijing, about 20,000 licences, and only over 4,000 licences have been issued this year. The lack of licensing resources is difficult to meet the requirements of leasing platform expansion, reporter investigation found that, in this case, some of the car rental platform secretly absorbed private car vehicles.
Reporter recently saw in the circle of friends claiming to be Beijing special car recruitment Commissioner Luxiansen issued the recruitment of vehicles and full-time drivers to join the information, recruitment posts in several platforms are currently advertising the car about rent platform.
To a well-known leasing platform for example, the recruitment requirements are: driving age more than three years, under the age of 55 years old, Beijing license, more than 120,000 of the bare car (sedan, business, SUV can) age within 5 years, meet the requirements of the training to be able to mount. Mr. LU said that eligible private owners can be linked to a leasing company, they can drive a single passenger, but the licence can not become a passenger licence, do not need to pay the money, the monthly wage structure for "basic salary + receive a single commission + platform Award."
In the process of experiencing more than one car, a driver admits that it is using his own car to take a part-time job in his spare time, and a platform's training content includes how to evade if asked by a policeman in plainclothes near the passenger or traffic hub.
Master Cheng was the first automobile Ambassador team business model driver, he joined the drop car two months, the monthly income of more than 10,000 yuan. Master Cheng told reporters, "I do rent a long time, know the law enforcement Corps of people how to check the ' black car ', so the fine thing is less than others." ”。
According to Master Cheng, there are a lot of bold young people are business car drivers or to the boss to drive, now also part-time dry cars. Yesterday, reporters from the Beijing Law enforcement Corps learned that before, they did find a driver to open business vehicles to provide limousine service.
A lot of car drivers said, private cars shake body change "special car", a 200,000 yuan of comfort of private car monthly income can reach more than 10,000 yuan. If 400,000 yuan above the Audi, BMW and other high-end cars, monthly income of twenty thousand or thirty thousand is not surprising.
Driver's joint fund to prevent the investigation
Many reporters found that all engaged in private car service owners are aware of their own engaged in the illegal rental operations, to avoid the seizure of law enforcement Corps is the first to learn the skills, once caught a fine of 20,000 yuan, one months of income all hit the water drift.
To reduce the risk of drivers being caught, it is easy to use the car even to greet the driver in advance. Yesterday, the Beijing Law Enforcement Corps staff said, in view of the driver's mobile phone, they have found easy to use the car to send the driver a mass of text messages, "that is, at the end of the airport, the railway station strictly check the black car, the driver can not go, and so on." ”
The driver told reporters that a few months ago, they had joined hands with dozens of peers to set up similar foundation organizations, each of them to pay 300 yuan, once someone was checked, the individual bear part of the fines, the rest by the foundation to pay.
"Now the new organization is complicated, but the proportion of individuals paying is even less." "Single Master said that the organization by the Labor company led by the establishment of the foundation, once the driver was seized problem, the Labor service company sent to the Law enforcement Corps negotiations, the personal burden of 10%, leasing company Burden 10%, the remaining from the fund deducted, the fund is not enough, members continue to pay."
Beijing Traffic Law Enforcement Corps related officials said that in private vehicles seized, some times because of illegal operation was seized, and its license plate number has been filed, if there is a continuous violation of the car must be heavy penalties.

Security issues
For many passengers to be loved by the car rental services, the reason is placed in the "dilemma" Vortex, the controversy is the focus: the situation of private car passenger service essay, and how to weigh the interests of the bus and taxi market. People with a negative attitude believe that a large influx of private cars will cause regulatory problems, there are security risks for passengers. At the same time, the call to face market demand and encourage innovation has been heard.

Security risks in regulatory difficulties
The newly promulgated "Taxi Management Service Regulation" by the Ministry of Transportation has been formally implemented on January 1, 2015. According to the regulations, about renting a car must have two conditions: first, the driver must obtain a certificate of employment, allowing him to engage in passenger service, and the second is that the vehicle must obtain a transport permit, allowing it to engage in operating activities. There is no policy or legal risk for the company to cooperate with formal leasing companies, which has become a market consensus. At present, some private cars are pouring into the car rental area.
In this respect, the national small and medium-sized car Rental Alliance executive Director, Fan Yongyao, vice president of the Leasing Industry Association, believes that there are two problems, first of all, according to the current law, personal vehicles and leasing operating vehicles, such as operating passenger cars have mandatory scrap life, second, a large number of private cars into the field of car rental will create regulatory problems.
A senior executive at a large car rental company, who declined to be named, told reporters that even the Uber, which advocates the integration of private car resources, has also faced policy risks, and now France, Germany, Spain, South Korea, India, and even some states in the US have banned Uber private car operations. Some time ago in India, Uber driver sexual assault to the industry sounded the alarm, although the GPS technology, real name certification technology is very advanced, but the industry still cannot afford to the impact of two such incidents. The current booking platform for rapid expansion, commissioned all types of intermediary companies recruit cars, private car owners of the standards of access are uneven, some recruitment companies do not even carry out illegal criminal records audit, which has a hidden security risks.

Blocking as sparse should be allowed to record entry
About the status of the rental industry in China, Li Yuheng, a senior researcher at CIC, advises that regulators should be treated with an open mind and a benign guide: "With the continuous integration of the Internet and the rental industry, the internet car business has been generated, although the private cars do not have the operational qualifications, but in the Internet bus Platform management, operation, Can activate a large number of idle resources, people travel to bring convenience, is the future of the rental industry is an important direction. ”
Master Wang admitted that even if the private car to change body to carry passengers, also with the previous "black car" is different, "black car" is those who do not in the transport management departments for any relevant formalities, at the same time call the price, the security of very low vehicles, but about the car rental platform has a real name registration, in the model access, billing methods, Driver assessment has already had a set of standards. "The crackdown on ' black cars ' has been under way for many years, but it has not been eradicated, indicating that there is a need for public demand, and that grooming may be better than a crackdown." "Master Wang said," can be called by mobile phones to serve good, traceable car, the people naturally to ' black car ' abandoned. Now the problem is that taxis, cars are not enough, some urban corner has not been very well covered, so ' black car ' has the space to survive. ”
Easy to use car CEO Zhou Ai has always advocated the concept of social vehicle sharing, in his view, the travel and people with cars through a reasonable way to connect is the trend of social development. Easy to use the car proposal, the Government should establish about the rental car market norms, integration of idle operating resources, in the future in policy supervision and traffic regulations, we can try to open the social vehicle resources, so that social vehicles through the delivery of records, assessment and other audit mechanisms, to join the rental system services.
Regarding the safety problem, the drop car introduces, in the service process accident, if is the vehicle responsibility, by the leasing vehicle Company and the vehicle insurance to compensate to pay, if is the driver responsibility, then the labor company pays. In addition, if the scope and amount of compensation exceeded, the platform owned by the "fund pool" to pay. The "fund pool" entrusted to the establishment of China Life management, the early drop of the car platform to invest 1 million yuan in the guaranteed funds, each order after the service fee from the service costs to invest 1 yuan, such as the service process generated insurance, insurance claims outside the scope of compensation, will be assessed by China life and from the "fund pool" to pay.
And a car said that the platform to provide passengers with the protection of 1 million yuan third party liability insurance and 200,000 of the sitting risk, to ensure that the vehicle in the course of operation in case of accidents and scratches, the external vehicle and pedestrian losses and passengers to carry out related claims; In addition, each vehicle also buys 500,000 of traffic accident insurance.

Although about car rental services in developed countries have been very mature, but in China is still new, the impact of the bus business on the taxi market affects the taxi driver and the regulatory layer of nerves, taxi drivers to the car dissatisfaction also from time to the newspapers.

Disrupt the order of the taxi market
Yesterday, the reporter learned from a number of taxi companies in Beijing, nearly one months, drop the car, easy to use cars and a special bus subsidy range is very large, resulting in the difference between limousine and taxi charges, a lot of passengers chose a special train. "It's especially obvious recently that a lot of taxis are empty when they sweep the streets during rush hours," he said. "A lot of drivers have been overcharging recently because they are less alive than they used to be," said Mr Dong, a taxi company at Baic. "They are ' black cars ', in case of an accident, we have a company behind the protection, how can not let ' black cars ' big line of its way!" Master Dong said.
Head of a large taxi company
said that due to the decline in passenger traffic, the driver circle generated some bad mood. Beijing Traffic and Transportation Bureau, the official said, at present, the car software service providers to engage in the illegal operation of private cars, disrupting the normal rental operation of the market order, "we are victims, but there is no constraint on the offender." ”
With more competition in the field of rental cars, the original positioning in the high-end car business in a variety of subsidy form to attract users to try to experience, which makes the relationship between car rental platform and taxi drivers increasingly tense. Li Yuheng, a senior researcher at CIC, argues that the current car business has a certain impact on the taxi industry. Car business and taxi business overlap part of more, although the original purpose of the car business is to meet the personalized needs of passengers, but in fact to occupy a more market share of taxis. "This is mainly because the current car business prices and taxi prices have not yet a big gap, and the service is better, favored by the market." ”
"The car price must and the taxi price has the obvious distinction, otherwise is not disorderly?" "The 45-year-old taxi driver, Master Jiang, has a big opinion on the limousine.

"Quick Cab chief Strategy officer, a car general manager Li Zu said, at present, the country has 30 million taxi orders every day, but only 60% is satisfied, the car National Day order quantity but hundreds of thousands of single, not only impact not to the taxi market, even to the taxi market positive supplement.
To distinguish between cars and taxis, the rental car platform is known to be evaluated with large data. For example, the number of cities (including Hong Kong) with fast taxi service by brother Companies has surpassed 300, and based on background data, it can be clearly found out which cities need differentiated travel services. First, because the supply of taxis in the past more than 10 years has been more stringent control, and second, the Chinese taxi fares compared to foreign countries is relatively cheap, which objectively caused the situation of demand, and these two contradictions more prominent place is very easy to appear differentiated demand.
Drop the car aspect also said that the drop car is a drop in the taxi's beneficial supplement, is in order to solve the current drop-by-taxi platform on the daily nearly 2 million travel demand is not satisfied with the plight, at the same time for the difference of travel needs to facilitate. According to the data, since Beijing issued the "notice on the total amount of taxi control in 1994", Beijing taxi number has always been in the control of about 60,000, but the number of permanent residents in Beijing has increased from more than 10 million in the last century 90 to more than 20 million now.
"The traditional taxi service and management system should be changed. "Car driver Beam Master said, at rush hour, he often see taxi drivers in the roadside smoking, chatting, is not pulling live, which also stimulated the peak period of car demand, the taxi industry should reflect on why they do not change." Teacher Liang said that taxi drivers do not want to pull live, the reason behind the management system, income and pay imbalance, will certainly choose to do Shang.
Southeast University traffic Law and Development Research Center executive deputy director Gudasun said that the car service is a real name, through the online payment, you can track, evaluation, and Taobao similar, businesses in order to get praise will
Continuous improvement of services, car drivers can not only get the platform real money cash rewards, in the process of snatching a single system will be given priority to push. Such a benign mechanism will make the limousine service more and more good, and will also force the traditional taxi industry to improve services.
