New Delhi. This is bad news for people running taxis in Ola, Uber or any other cab aggregators. According to media reports, the central government has decided that any vehicle in taxi service like Ola and Uber will be able to run for 8 years only from its registration. Even after this deadline, the vehicle may be fit, but it will be considered unsuitable for taxi service. This rule will be implemented across the country. This is expected to reduce the number of trains of cab aggregators offering taxi service. According to the information, 20 percent of all the vehicles registered in Ola and Uber are 8 years or more old.
After registration in taxi service, the rules of using the vehicle for 8 years can cause problems for those who buy the vehicle. The reason for this is that most people buy a car on a loan. It is difficult to repay the loan in an 8 -year deadline. Apart from this, if the vehicles are out of the taxi service, then it can also become difficult for their drivers to find a living. According to the information, the owners will be able to use the vehicles that will be out of Ola, Uber and other taxi service. These trains can also be sold.
The central government made the rule of keeping vehicles in taxi service for 8 years because of this so that those traveling will get better security. Also, they can travel in new vehicles and comfortably. Actually, safety features are less in older than new vehicles. For example, the central government has made a rule to keep six airbags in every car, but this facility of security is not seen in the old trains. At the same time, pollution is also less than new trains than old. However, the number of people who are troubled by the 8 -year deadline for trains in taxi service is also expected to be enough. Apart from this, due to reduced taxis of all service like Ola, Uber on the roads, it can also increase difficult for passengers.
