Comprehensive interpretation of taxi reform 2023
On 10 october 2023, the ministry of transport and communications issued a one-month public consultation on the " guidance on furthering the development of health in the rental automobile industry " and the " interim measures for the management of cyberbooked car operating services " . With regard to taxi reform, do you understand? The following writer provides you with a comprehensive reading of taxi reform in 2023, hopefully helping you。
A comprehensive interpretation of taxi reform
I. “mother money” can be negotiated and dynamically adjusted
[provisions] encourage, support and guide taxi enterprises, trade associations, in equal consultation with taxi drivers, trade union organizations, in the rational determination of the rates or quotas for taxi contracting and in the application of dynamic adjustments based on such factors as operating costs, changing transport prices, etc., to open, through multiple channels, the composition and measurement of the projects for which the fees or quotas are assigned。
[reads] against the backdrop of the impact of the internet car, the decline in the number of passengers and the decline in income, the reduction of “many money” became the biggest call for taxi drivers. The industry analyses that “magic money” can be negotiated and dynamically adjusted, which means that “magic money” will not remain static and will help boost the voice of taxi drivers and safeguard their legitimate interests。
Ii. Pro bono use of taxis
[provision] the right to operate new taxis is entirely free of charge and may not be changed. Local governments must not introduce new policies on the use of the right to own business. There has been paid use of the right to operate, and city people's governments need to consider factors such as fair competition in the market, develop scientifically sound transition programmes and phase out paid user fees。
[interpret] as part of the “behaviour money”, the payment of the right-to-employer fee is directly related to the cost of the enterprise and the income of the taxi driver, and the free use of the right to operate the taxi will reduce the burden on taxi operators and the space for “behaviour money” to decline。
Iii. Total taxi control and dynamic adjustments
[specific] city people's governments shall determine the size of taxi capacity and its share in the integrated urban transport system on the basis of the location of taxi development, development planning and diversified public mobility needs, taking into account such factors as population size, level of economic development, utilization of taxi mileage and urban congestion. Establish dynamic monitoring and adjustment mechanisms to assess market supply and demand on an annual basis and adjust the size of the capacity in a timely manner。
[interpret] with regard to the quantitative control of taxis, inspector xu yahua of the transport services department of the ministry of transport explained that there are two main reasons: one is the long duration of taxi operations, in particular the inefficient operation of cruise taxis, the heavy use of road resources and the negative externalities of uneconomicalness and increased traffic congestion. The second is to avoid blind and irrational entry into the market for employees, leading to a disorderly competition in the industry, resulting in a reduction in the quantity and quality of taxis。
Iv. The nature of the use of a car to be registered as a taxi passenger
[specific] a vehicle to be engaged in a network reservation car operation shall be submitted by the owner to the road transport authority in the place of service and shall meet the following conditions: (i) seven passenger vehicles and less; (ii) vehicles are registered as leased passengers; and (iii) vehicle satellite locator devices, emergency alarm devices are installed with driving logs。
[interpret] external analysis of the nature of vehicle use is registered as a taxi passenger, raising the entry threshold for specialized vehicles, which may discourage many private car owners. The mandatory end-of-life standards for motor vehicles provide that there is no limitation on the useful life of small, small, non-operational passenger vehicles, while the eight-year use of small, mini-charter passenger vehicles means that the nature of the vehicle's use will have to be changed to eight-year end-of-life。
It should be noted that the “shanghai version” of the exclusive vehicle system introduced in recent days is more liberal, private cars are involved in the operation of the car in shanghai and the nature of the vehicle does not require a change from “non-operational vehicles” to “operational vehicles”。
V. Private cars cannot access their platforms
[specific] the road transport authority, upon review under the conditions set out in article 12, issues a " road transport certificate " for the type of vehicle that is eligible for rental。
No enterprise or individual may provide an operational service for passengers and vehicles that do not have legal qualifications, or for drivers. Operating services may not be provided in the name of private minibuses or carpools。
[interprets] according to this provision, if the nature of the private car vehicle is not changed to a taxi passenger and the road transport certificate is obtained, access to the platform will not be possible。
At a press conference, the deputy director of the rule of law department of the ministry of transport and communications, wei dong, stated that there were a number of requirements, both for vehicles and for drivers, for access to the internet for taxi platforms, which required vehicles with operational qualifications, so that the current provision was clearer...
Vi. Specialized drivers are required to be accredited and over three years old
Drivers engaged in internet-based car reservation services shall meet the following conditions: (i) obtain the corresponding car driver's licence and have been driving experience for more than three years, have not been given a full score for the last three score cycles, have no fatal traffic accident liability records, have no drunk driving, have no competition, etc., and have obtained a certificate from the public security department for the offence of non-hazardous driving。
Drivers who meet the conditions set out in article 14 are required to be qualified upon application by the driver and issued by the municipal road transport authority in the area where they are located, in the form of a qualification certificate for the profession of road transport practitioners who make an appointment for a taxi。
[interprets] according to the above-mentioned provisions, the conditions for becoming a car driver are relatively high, not only for more than three years of age, but also for certification by the public security services of criminal records of non-hazardous driving offences, as well as for obtaining a " road transport practitioner qualification " 。
The price of transport must not be below the cost price
[provision] the network booking of taxi operators should reasonably determine the network booking of taxi fares and apply a coded price. A network appointment for a taxi operator should not be unduly competitive in order to crowd out competitors and provide operational services at below-cost prices。
Network appointment of taxi operators for market incentives, promotions, etc. Should be in line with the relevant regulations, and incentives, promotion programmes should be announced to society 10 days in advance。
[interpret] transport prices cannot be below cost and require a social announcement 10 days in advance, which means that in the future the dedicated platform may no longer be free to “burn money” and that car vouchers may become fewer and the margin of preference for passengers may become smaller。
Eight, no cruisers, up to $2,000
A taxi reservation for the network is not allowed to travel. A person who makes an appointment for a taxi driver to drive a car tour is ordered to do so by a road transport authority above the county level and is fined between $500 and $2,000, and a person who makes an appointment for a car on the network is fined between $10,000 and $30,000。
[interpret] wei dong, deputy director of the rule of law division of the ministry of transport and communications, stated that, unlike the way in which a taxi is booked for the internet, it is not possible to use a “road sweep” approach, i. E., not to reach people through a cruise. It can only be made available by appointment, which is an important difference between the two。
Nine. No multiple platforms for a car. A maximum of 30,000
[specific] network taxi reservations should not be connected to two or more network service platforms at the same time to provide operational services。
In violation of this provision, the owner of the vehicle shall, by order of the road transport authority at the county level and above, place the vehicle in an unlicensed network service platform or two or more network services at the same time into a network service platform where the driver has access to a non-licensed network service platform, which provides an appointment for the rental of a car, and shall be fined between $10,000 and $30,000。
[interpret] this means that a car can only provide operating services on a web-based service platform, and that a previous registration of a vehicle will be banned, along with the registration of drops and multiple web platforms in uber。
X. Specialized platform servers on the mainland
[provisions] to apply for internet reservation taxis, to have internet platforms for internet cabs and the ability to interact and process information data appropriate to the intended operation, servers are located in mainland china。
A network appointment car operator shall retain the true identity and contact details of the driver engaged in the network appointment car service and record and back up the data on the content of the information, user accounts, mobile phone numbers, logbooks, etc. Posted on the internet platform by the driver, the contractor and the operator, in accordance with the relevant requirements of the internet information service management scheme, and make them available to the relevant state authorities when they are duly consulted。
[interpret] external analysis. Servers are set up in mainland china to protect information security. It is noteworthy that uber, a foreign investor, recently announced the establishment of a chinese-owned company in the shanghai free trade zone and that its operating servers were transferred to mainland china earlier this year。
2023 taxi reform programme, updated centrally for taxis
1. Easing the retirement age for taxi drivers and extending the right to operate electric taxis to include spinal diseases as occupational diseases
2. To establish, within the existing management system, an agency that can centrally manage all taxi drivers and taxi companies, and that can also manage the different types of taxi contracting model, attachments, individual households, etc.
3. To eliminate all pre-existing, decentralized, impotent taxi companies and to consolidate and pool resources and strengthen management
With the high cost of taxis and the high intensity of their work, the cost of removing naked taxis, insurance, etc. For an ordinary taxi driver is nearly $100,000. Drivers are required to pay extra monthly fees, taxes, etc., and the driver's monthly earnings are minimal, so the two will raise the taxi driver's income。
New policy and programme for reforming the taxi industry
Yesterday, the city council issued an official response to the recent shortage of taxis, stating that the shenzhen taxi industry reform and development programme would be urgently developed in the context of national policies to safeguard the health of the industry and ensure smooth movement of citizens。
Since last year, the traditional taxi industry has been hit by, inter alia, market changes, affecting taxi drivers ' income. On 4 january, there was a problem in shenzhen with insufficient taxi exit rates. In response to this situation, the shenzhen city transport commission, in conjunction with the relevant departments and agencies, has taken prompt steps to organize a rapid process of dialogue with the taxi industry association and with taxi company directors and taxi drivers to hear complaints and persuade them to return to normal operation. The second is the timely deployment of traffic capacity, the organization of contacts with the taxi industry's compassionate, communist and demonstration convoys, the deployment of public transport vehicles, the provision of transport security at shenzhen airport, shenzhen north station, the imperial post, the fukuda port, and major stations, and the timely evacuation of passengers. Thirdly, taxi businesses are encouraged to lower rents and reduce the burden on drivers. The public security authorities are firmly committed to ensuring the normal movement of citizens by maintaining traffic order on the road and by preventing the normal operation of taxis and vehicles. The fifth is to intensify efforts to combat all forms of illegal operations and to maintain normal taxi market order. Sixth is an interview with the internet-based platform, which requires that it operate in accordance with the law and regulations。
The shenzhen city transport committee indicated that it would follow the situation closely and take effective measures to properly address the problem of inadequate taxi exit rates. At the same time, policy measures for the reform and development of the shenzhen taxi sector are being urgently studied in the context of national policies。
As of 20 p. M. Yesterday, as a result of the joint efforts of all concerned, the shortage of taxis in part of our city was effectively alleviated and sustained. At present, major nodes and major road taxis, such as airports and ports, operate in a regular manner, and the transport sector has indicated that it will follow closely the dynamics of traffic operations throughout the city and will guarantee the normal movement of citizens。
