The new policy of online car-hailing was introduced, and Jinan officials sent reassuring text messages to taxi drivers overnight

On the 28th, Jinan’s brother received a "don’t worry" text message overnight.

  On July 28, a text message sent to taxi drivers by the Jinan Passenger Management Center attracted attention. The Jinan Passenger Management Center said that the comfort text message was indeed sent by them, which was intended to appease the emotions of brothers and maintain the stability of the industry. The staff of the Jinan Municipal Transportation Bureau said that the content of the text message does not conflict with the new policy of online car-hailing, and Jinan will refine the guiding opinions and interim measures. With the official implementation of the interim measures for the operation and management of online car-hailing on November 1, Jinan will also introduce local special car management measures.

  My brother received a text message overnight

  "Don’t worry about the driver!"

  At 3:00 p.m. on July 28, the "Guiding Opinions on Deepening Reform and Promoting the Healthy Development of the Taxi Industry" and "Interim Measures for the Management of Online Booking Taxi Business Services" were announced. At 11:00 that night, Master Wang received a reassuring text message from Jinan Customer Management Center. The text message reads as follows:

  Dear drivers: Don’t worry! Don’t believe in rumors! The scale of the number of online car-hailing in this city is determined by the municipal government! After the implementation of the new policy, in addition to the penalty of 5,000 to 30,000 yuan for drivers, the unlicensed operation will also be fined 10,000 to 30,000 yuan for its platform! It is a more severe sanction! And the level of online car-hailing freight is also determined by the municipal government! Issued by the passenger management center. Issued by the control center from 23:33:13 on July 28.

  Mr. Sun also received the same notice at 8:56 am on the 29th. "Regardless of whether the price of online car-hailing will rise after it is legal, our work will definitely become less and less." Mr. Sun analyzed that the customer management center may have sent text messages overnight to appease the emotions of taxi drivers.

  "After the online car-hailing is legal, it is possible that the old driver will change careers." Master Wang said that in the past few months, the company returned and updated five cars, and only one original owner.

  Some brothers also welcomed the new policy of "online car-hailing". Brother Song said that there are no rules and no circle. "Online car-hailing" must have a number limit, and it is impossible to develop in disorder. Moreover, Jinan will have new requirements for vehicles and drivers, "but it needs a process."

  Jinan Municipal Transportation Bureau responded

  Texting does not conflict with the New Deal

  On the afternoon of July 29, the person in charge of the relevant office of the passenger management center of Jinan Municipal Transportation Bureau told reporters that the text messages received by my brother were indeed sent by the official of the passenger management center, and were sent to the city’s taxi drivers twice on the night of July 28 and the morning of July 29. "It was too late last night, and many brothers may not be able to receive it. I sent it again this morning to confirm that they can receive it."

  "After the introduction of the new policy on online car-hailing, taxi drivers may be emotionally unstable, and sending text messages to drivers is also to appease their emotions and maintain the stability of the industry." On the afternoon of the 29th, relevant staff of Jinan Transportation Bureau said.

  In response to the text message sent by the customer management center of Jinan Transportation Bureau, some citizens felt that the words were a little blunt and expressed doubts: "The government should follow the laws of market economy, is this in line with the spirit of reform?"

  In this regard, the relevant person in charge of the Jinan Transportation Bureau said: "The content of the text message does not conflict with the corresponding provisions of the guidance and interim measures announced by the State Council. It is all stipulated in the regulations. Whether it is the number, scale or pricing of online car-hailing, it needs to be controlled by the government."

  In response to Article 3 of the Interim Measures for the Administration of Online Booking Taxi Business Services, which stipulates that the state gives priority to the development of public transportation and the orderly development of online car-hailing, some transportation experts said that "orderly" actually represents the color of government control. Liu Xiaoming, vice-minister of transportation, commented on the significance of the new regulations: "This is the first national online car-hailing regulation in the world. Through tailor-made supervision models, it will give them legal status and support their standardized and healthy development."

  During the three-month transition period

  Online car-hailing is still illegal

  With the official implementation of the interim measures for the operation and management of online car-hailing on November 1 this year, Jinan will also introduce local special car management measures. Relevant staff of Jinan Municipal Transportation Bureau told reporters that because the guiding opinions and interim measures have just come out of Taiwan, Jinan is currently in the learning and implementation stage, and the specific implementation provisions need to be further refined. Because the content of the interim opinions is very broad, Jinan needs to issue specific opinions and measures that are in line with local conditions.

  The person said that considering congestion, pollution and safety issues, local governments will definitely control the number, scale and price of online car-hailing, and the implementation of the new policy of online car-hailing must be completed with the participation of industry and commerce, taxation, transportation and public security departments.

  "The interim measures do not clearly state how the platform, vehicles and drivers will go through the formalities. It can be said that until the Jinan special car policy is implemented, the transportation authority will still investigate and punish illegal vehicles in accordance with the current road transportation regulations. After all, they still have not gone through the operation formalities!" The staff member said.

  After the legalization of online car-hailing, it is still necessary to abide by laws and regulations. On July 28, the Ministry of Transport, the Central Network Information Office, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Public Security, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, and the State Bureau of Letters and Visits jointly interviewed four online car-hailing platform companies, Uber, Shenzhou, and Yidao. At the meeting, Vice Minister of Transport Liu Xiaoming particularly emphasized that after the transition period, relevant functional areas of business will jointly enforce the law, increase the crackdown on illegal operations and other illegal acts, and maintain a good market order in the taxi industry. For platform companies that do not implement relevant requirements, violate laws and regulations, and incite acts that disrupt social order, they will be dealt with in accordance with the law, and the relevant enterprises and their responsible persons will be seriously investigated. If the circumstances are serious, relevant
