■ ask questions
● Why do you want to manage the drivers of the network car?
According to the Ministry of Transport, whether it is a network car or a cruise car, it provides a universal passenger service for the public and implements access management for drivers according to law, which is the bottom line requirement for industry management departments to ensure transportation safety and service quality.
● In what aspects have the characteristics of the network car been considered?
In the revision of "Regulations on the Management of Taxi Drivers’ Qualification", the characteristics of the network car are fully considered, and the development of new formats is actively supported through "tailor-made" system design and management innovation. For example, compared with the tour bus driver, it simplifies the test content of the network car driver to the greatest extent, and stipulates that its registration and cancellation can be completed through the platform company reporting to the taxi administrative department where the license issuing organ is located.
Regulations on the management of cruise taxis
"Money" should be adjusted in time.
According to the framework of rules and regulations issued by Guiding Opinions on Deepening Reform and Promoting the Healthy Development of Taxi Industry and Interim Measures for the Management of Online Booking Taxi Management Service, the revised Regulations on the Management of Cruise Taxi Management Service has adjusted the scope of application and made a series of regulations on the positioning of taxi industry and the distribution of interests between operators and drivers. It is clear that taxis are an integral part of urban comprehensive transportation system, a supplement to urban public transportation, and provide personalized transportation services for the public. The development of cruise taxis should be adapted to the economic and social development of the city and coordinated with public transportation and other passenger transport services. By defining the development orientation, we will strive to build a diversified and differentiated urban comprehensive transportation service system to better meet the travel needs of the people.
Aiming at the problem of taxi "money", cruise taxi operators are required to adjust the contract fee standard or quota task in time according to operating costs, freight rate changes and other factors, so as to better build a business model in which enterprises and drivers share operational risks and distribute benefits reasonably, and accelerate the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries.
