~ The honeymoon is just over, dripping fast can not wait to invite the people of the country to sit "limousine." reported that, starting from March 21 0 o'clock, users use drop car and fast one car can enjoy the free start price concessions, the total investment is expected to reach 1 billion yuan.
drop Fast of the relevant responsible person said, hope to use subsidies to popularize car users. However, from the current development environment, the future of the car is uncertain.
intensification of industry contradictions
since the end of last year, Shenyang, Nanjing and other cities have been the occurrence of taxi outage, mainly from the "drop fast" and other car start price downward.
from 17 yuan to 13 yuan, to 10 yuan, and then to today's free start price coupons. Frequent price moves, resulting in drop fast car start price has been flat with the taxi fares. This is more difficult for the current operation of the high-grade taxis, is undoubtedly worse.
now, the car is in better condition than the taxi, the driver service than the taxi, the money than the taxi, and free mineral water, rechargeable treasure, wet paper towels and other value-added services. In the high-profile intervention of the car, many taxi drivers said that one months before the break can barely earn three thousand or four thousand yuan. Now, another 1 billion yuan special car coupons, I am afraid this day even more difficult.
data shows that droplet and rapid merger, two taxi software accounted for more than 90% of the market share, price reduction or will cause the chain reaction of the car market. Not only that, the price of the two major car brands had put forward the "dislocation of the business strategy" vanished, coupled with the special car "burn money action", car and taxi head-on confrontation imminent.
legality controversy constantly
since last year the United States Uber company into the Chinese market, as well as dropping a taxi, quick taxi after the launch of a car service, on the legality of the dispute is never interrupted.
at present, there are two modes of operation of the domestic car service: One is to take a taxi software company to integrate private cars, through the network to provide users with special car booking service; the other is the taxi software company and the automobile leasing company, the Labor Service company, the user signs the Quartet agreement to provide the limousine service On the basis of the agreement, clear Quartet responsibilities, that is, taxi software companies to provide information and channels, car rental companies to provide vehicles, labor companies to provide drivers, user selection services and evaluation supervision.
Beijing and Shanghai both made statements about whether the cars were legal and compliant. Beijing Traffic Law Enforcement Corps spokesman Liang Jianwei said, according to the "Beijing Taxi Management Regulations", in addition to regular taxis, no units and individuals can not provide taxi services. Shanghai Municipal Transportation Committee deputy director of social publicity Huangxiaoyong also said that Shanghai's main blow is the private car to participate in the operation.
Face the official answer, drop and quick taxi relevant responsible person said, their car services are and formal leasing company, Labor company cooperation, as a taxi software platform, will not and any private vehicle owner signed a cooperation agreement. Therefore, their car is not black.
in fact, such a counterattack does not work. On the one hand, according to Liang Jianwei, no matter what kind of agreement signed, as long as the taxi service is illegal operation. This means that all the limousine services on the market are illegal. On the other hand, due to the frequent taxi outage, Beijing, Shanghai, Shenyang and other nearly 10 cities to stop the drop of a taxi, easy to use cars, quick taxi and other companies of the "Special Car Service", the vehicle is characterized as "black car."
at the same time, the State Ministry of Transport said to the media, the ban on private cars access to the "car" platform operation, but also affirmed the "Special train" innovation services. In view of the inconsistency between national and local attitudes, it will take a while to estimate the legality of the shuttle bus.
Limousine Service has "black hole"
outside the car is classified as "black car", not vexatious. From the security, insurance compensation, complaints, the car service does exist "black hole."
first, the bus entry threshold is too low. Vehicle life of more than 3 years, driving more than 3 years, can be linked to a leasing company under the door, to join the "limousine service." And the formal taxi business, the driver in addition to meet the age, education, driving age and other requirements, but also through the public security departments of the audit. The company will then conduct interviews with the operations Branch, Human resources department, Safety branch and Law enforcement branch. After the medical examination, but also to participate in the passenger traffic management department training, after the examination to obtain Service qualification certificate. The whole process will be nearly one months away. And the driver will have to take a monthly security class. Taxi companies also buy "seat insurance" for passengers.
second, black cars drill empty "wash white" identity. At present, many black car drivers have a "black-and-white" dual identity. In the Car service field, as a leasing company's vehicles are legally qualified to operate, in the departure from the bus service area, is completely black taxis. The walk between white and black is bound to increase the uncertainty of security.
Third, the car complaint mechanism is not sound. A lot of people feedback, when the car complaints, call drop fast two companies of the customer Service hotline is no answer.
policy is not ripe
for consumers, regardless of black and white cars, as long as they can meet the safe and convenient travel is a good car. But for the country, the introduction of new rules for car service is too early, after all, this involves a variety of interests.
from the current market feedback, the car model will effectively lease the company's idle vehicles, as well as the service company a large number of drivers to optimize the configuration, while providing users with more choices for travel, easing the problem of a taxi. But the market is ever-changing, plus the car service has just started soon, can really adapt to market demand still need time to consider.
from another point of view, China's taxi franchise mechanism has entered a dilemma. Taxi drivers often complain that they are hard to make money; travelers complain that they often can't get a car. The surface is the contradiction between supply and demand, but it is the problem of taxi operation mechanism. How to solve this problem, is to improve or to break, what the tube, to what extent is the country needs to explore the problem.
It is true that such a model like a car is the future development trend of urban transport, is the performance of the progress of the Times. The country should actively escort the development of special trains. However, we cannot overlook the fact that the government will never be able to foresee the market. At present, the only thing the government does is to give it to the market to judge, and whenever the time is ripe, it will naturally be incumbent on the government to introduce new regulations to help it develop.
in short, now the car to go left or to the right, it is too early to say.
