Private cars are strictly prohibited for rental operations

After the owner of a private car is affiliated with a car rental company, he can provide a "business appointment car" service through the ordering software. The car owners seem to provide passengers with professional car rental services, but in fact it is the black car drivers who work. The day before yesterday, the Beijing Municipal Transportation Commission’s Bureau of Transportation issued the “Notice Concerning the Prohibition of Car Leasing Enterprises Providing Facilitation of Illegal Operation” (hereinafter referred to as the “Notice”). It is strictly forbidden to use private cars for car leasing operations. Rental vehicles must not be used without permission. Rental and other industry operations.

>> Phenomenon affiliated car rental companies "black car wash white"

Yesterday, the reporter used an easy-to-use software to make an appointment to rent a car. The driver's name was Bin Wang (a pseudonym). As a result, with the help of navigation, it took ten minutes to come to the reporter from a few hundred meters away.

Wang Bin told reporters that his car rental service was not legal. Once he was found by the city administration, he would have to punish the money, because he did not rent the company's car, but his own private car. Fortunately, there is no need for cash transactions, and the background can be deducted directly from the bank card bound by the passengers, which is safer than directly driving a “black car”.

Four months ago, Wang Bin was a staff member of a company. He saw that the brother-in-law of the BMW Car was able to earn more than 10,000 yuan a month while working hard. He decided to quit his job with low income.

The "occupation" process is not complicated. “First hang the car under the name of the car rental company, and then I can easily register my documents with the vehicle. Then I can download their software orders.” Wang Bin said that the car couldn’t bear any accident. responsibility.

At present, Wang Bin earns three or four thousand yuan per month and works four days a week. Compared with its own economical car, the brother-in-law's BMW car has a high fee, earning an average of more than 10,000 per month.

>> Originated from the hot car rental market, private car team In addition to Wang Bin's easy access to vehicles, the Hornet (currently changed to No. 1 car), Uber taxis introduced by the United States have been exposed by the media involved "black car whitewash." Among them, the market share of easy-to-use vehicles is the largest, and the company once claimed to account for 90% of the business car market, and has served 50,000 drivers.

A number of industry insiders told the Jinghua Times reporter that at present, China does not allow car rental companies to provide “carry-on-driving” services. For example, Shenzhou, a car rental company can only provide vehicles. The driver service is to find a labor service company and enjoy the business car service provided by the car hire. The passengers must find two companies.

With the development of Internet orders and APP software, Yiyi, No. 1 car, and Uber business car platforms have emerged. They hire cars from car rental companies and hire people from service companies. Once the passengers are on the platform, they can quickly match in the background to provide services for passengers.

Late (a pseudonym) is an early entry into the business car industry. He told reporters that many of the early offerings were for appointments. For example, international friends who came to Beijing don’t recognize their driver’s licenses, they must bring drivers, and they basically handle the basic needs in advance. Later, many business people who did not want to take a taxi also had similar needs, with more urgent needs and shorter rental times.

After the appearance of the Cheque platform, it opened up on-call services similar to the senior taxi. As the leasing company's car is not enough, the car rental market is booming and private car owners are just entering the team.

“This is the process in which a commercial bus evolves into a taxi business.” The source stated that in order to allow private car owners to enter the team legally, the car owner will be affiliated with the car rental company and the car platform will be relocated from the company. It seems that there are no loopholes. According to the 2012 version of the "Beijing Automobile Lease Management Measures" (hereinafter referred to as "Measures") stipulates that the car that the leasing company uses to operate must be under the name of the leasing operator, so this kind of landing operation is illegal.

>> Remediation of rental car rental is banned on behalf of the driver On August 12, the Beijing Municipal Transportation Commission Administration of Transportation issued a “notice” that the functional department has noticed the use of the Internet and mobile phone software to book rental car market behavior, after verification, found that Operators negotiate with car rental companies for car rental matters, and have set up lease companies themselves but are not legally documented. At the same time, private cars are collected to engage in illegal business activities.

For this reason, the "Notice" reiterates the provisions in the "Measures" that businesses engaged in car leasing must be registered in accordance with law and reported and filed according to regulations. Vehicles used for leasing should be owned by car leasing operators. A car rental company may not provide driving services for the lessee, and may not provide or provide disguised convenience for illegal operators in the name of car rental.

Obviously, this is a blow to the "black car" affair.

In addition, the "Notice" also requires that rental vehicles not be used for the operation of unlicensed rental industries. Late customs believe that the government has realized that the current commercial bus service has expanded into the taxi business.

The Jinghua Times reporter asked this reporter about a number of taxi operators. They believe that the current practice of some car rental companies is illegal and will disrupt the taxi market.

â–¡ Point of View Punishment Car rental companies may be late in retrieving the lease indicator. The government notice appears to be the management of the car rental company, but the purpose is obviously the car platform. At present, private car owners have a relatively large proportion of car services, and once they are severely hit, they will ultimately affect the car platform.
