Who else is there on an online car-hailing platform without a license plate？

　　Yesterday, Didi officially announced that it had obtained an online car-hailing license. This license obtained from Tianjin gives Didi the qualification to carry out online car-hailing services nationwide. At present, only online car-hailing platforms in the country, including Didi, Shenzhou Special Car, Shouqi Car-hailing and other online car-hailing platforms, have announced that they have obtained online car-hailing licenses. Beijing’s new policy on online car-hailing has set a five-month transition period, which is now half over. Which company will be the next to get an online car-hailing license?

　　Didi announced that it had obtained a license from Tianjin

　　Didi announced yesterday that after review by the Tianjin Municipal Transportation Commission and other departments, the Didi platform has been granted the "Online Booking Taxi Car Business License" issued by Tianjin, which means that the Didi online car-hailing platform is in line with national policies and has been recognized by the government. Didi can carry out online car-hailing services nationwide.

　　Didi Chuxing obtained the certificate documents this time, including: the People’s Republic of China online booking taxi business license, and the application to engage in online car-hailing business with online service capabilities. The main body of the license application is Didi Chuxing Technology Co., Ltd., and the business scope is online booking taxi passenger transportation.

　　On January 26 this year, Shenzhou Special Car announced that it had obtained the "Online Booking Taxi Business License" in Fujian, which was the first online car-hailing license in the country. Shenzhou Special Car also became the first platform company in the country to be allowed to carry out online car-hailing business services. On February 8 this year, Shouqi Car obtained the license in Beijing and became an online car-hailing enterprise with legal business qualifications. In addition, some local online car-hailing platforms, including Cao Cao Special Car and TikTok Carpool, have also obtained their own online car-hailing licenses. Cao Cao Special Car got the license in Hangzhou, and TikTok Carpool got the government record license for the carpool synthesis platform.

　　Didi, the largest ride-hailing platform, has been in the spotlight. Didi said at the time that "the online ability of the platform is still under review, the scale of the Didi platform is larger than others, and various assessments are complicated and time-consuming." Yesterday, Didi finally got the license plate, and Didi platform owners and passengers breathed a sigh of relief.

　　However, Yidao, Meituan, Feidi and other platforms have not yet announced that they have obtained the online car-hailing license, which Yidao and Meituan said is "under application". It is reported that more than 10 online car-hailing platform companies are consulting or applying in Beijing alone, and some are already supplementing and perfecting the application materials. It can be seen that the application for online car-hailing license is not an easy task.

　　However, Beijing’s new policy on online car-hailing has given a five-month transition period. On December 21 last year, the Beijing Municipal Transportation Commission officially issued Beijing’s "Detailed Rules for the Administration of Online Booking Taxi Operation Services"; on May 21 this year, the transition period will end, when unlicensed platforms will not be able to engage in related services.

　　The key to obtaining a license is online ability review

　　Beiqing Daily reporter inquired that, according to the regulations, those who apply to engage in online car-hailing operations should have online and offline service capabilities. This includes both online and offline aspects. Online includes "having an Internet platform to carry out online car-hailing business and the information and data exchange and processing capabilities suitable for the proposed business, and having the conditions for relevant regulatory departments such as transportation, communication, public security, taxation, and online information to retrieve and inquire about relevant network data information according to law. The database of the online service platform is connected to the supervision platform of the administrative department of taxi rental cars. The server is set up in the Chinese mainland, and there are cyber security management systems and security protection technical measures that meet the regulations.", "If you use electronic payment, you shall sign an agreement with banks and non-bank payment institutions to provide payment and settlement services."; while offline requirements include "having enterprise legal personality", "having a sound operation management system, safety production management system and service quality." "Guarantee system", "There are corresponding service institutions and service capabilities at the place of service", etc.

　　Industry insiders told the Beijing Youth Daily reporter that the most complicated and time-consuming part of the process is the review of online capabilities; for large platforms, "network service platform database access to the taxi administrative department supervision platform" is a large project, so it takes enough time to connect; while the determination of offline service capabilities is relatively simple, and major companies should be able to meet the standards.

　　The number of online car-hailing drivers who passed the exam is not large

　　In addition to the most basic license plates obtained by the platform, the drivers of online car-hailing also need to pass the corresponding exams before they can start their jobs. The new regulations stipulate that drivers who engage in online car-hailing services need to take national and local exams. The national public subject exam is a knowledge test with general normative requirements on national taxi laws and regulations, professional ethics, service norms, and safe operation. Regional subject exams, localities can set the content of the exam according to their own circumstances. After passing the exam, you need to register to work, and the valid period of registration of professional qualifications is 3 years.

　　The requirements for online ride-hailing drivers are also very strict. In addition to the requirements of "Jingren Jingche", they also need to have: obtain a motor vehicle driver’s license of the corresponding approved driving model and have more than 3 years of driving experience; no traffic accident crime, dangerous driving crime record, no drug use record, no driving record after drinking alcohol, and no 12-point record in the last 3 consecutive scoring periods; Only personnel with no violent criminal record can become online ride-hailing drivers. In this regard, such regulations are no different from local regulations for taxi drivers.

　　On February 7 this year, Beijing issued the first online taxi driver qualification certificate to Meng Tao, a driver of Shouqi. Shouqi said that platform drivers have registered in many cities, and nearly 8,000 drivers have registered for the test nationwide. At present, about 1,500 people have passed the test, and they are receiving the certificate one after another. News of drivers getting the qualification certificate has also spread on platforms such as Shenzhou and Didi, but the number is not large. Judging from the overall passing situation of online taxi drivers, the number of applicants is quite large, but there is still a big gap between the number of people who have passed and the number of applicants.

　　There are still more than two months until the transition period of Beijing’s new policy expires on May 21. Which company will be the next to get a ride-hailing license plate? How many drivers will be able to successfully hit the road by then? The market is waiting to see.
