The 4th Industrial Revolution Commission`s 1.5 hacker tones, scheduled to discuss restrictions on carpool apps, are expected to be half-finished.
Meanwhile, the taxi industry is unlikely to reach a consensus because it is in a position to attend if it discusses the `development direction of the taxi industry` rather than discussing the `carpool` app at Hackerton.
According to the industry on January 30, the 4th Industrial Revolution was met today to encourage the participation of the taxi industry in the 1.5 hacker tonnage held at the Training Institute of Friendship Officers of Cheonan on February 1-2, but participation of the taxi industry is expected to be difficult.
According to the official of the 4th Industrial Revolution, "We will listen to the opinion of the taxi industry and finalize it regarding the attendance." "The taxi industry may or may not discuss carpool depending on the position of the taxi industry."
On the other hand, the conflict was triggered by the fact that the carpool app `Car Pool` introduced time-selective operations. The time selection system uses five days for the user to specify the time and day corresponding to the actual commute time of the user, and the change is limited to one per month.
By now, the carpool app was running the service by appointing the work hours (5:00 am to 11:00 am) and the work time (5:00 pm to 2:00 am the following day).
However, the taxi industry strongly opposed that the time option would violate the passenger car transportation business law, which prohibits freight transportation during and after work hours, and conflicted with the start-up industry.
The Ministry of Land Transport and the Seoul Metropolitan Government also interpreted that it might be illegal at first, but it is subtracting from the criticism that it is stuck with the government that shouts innovation. The National Assembly also banned carpool apps, and the start-up industry rebelled.
The taxi industry is still in a tough position. On that day, they delivered a position on the 4th Industrial Revolution that they would attend the hacker tones on condition that they do not discuss the carpool app. Instead, Hacker Tone proposed to discuss the development of the taxi industry. Accordingly, the panel to attend the discussions is the Seoul Metropolitan Government, the Ministry of Land, and the taxi industry. Carpool app related officials refused to participate in the discussion.
Meanwhile, a member of the National Association of Taxi Transport Business Associations who visited the 4th Industrial Revolution said, "This is a problem that needs to be addressed by the National Assembly when the current law that does not clearly show commuting time is supplemented," he said. If accepted, the taxi industry will attend the hacker tones and discuss the development of the taxi industry. "
If there is no discussion about carpool apps in the industry, it means that hacker tones have no meaning in the agenda setting. In the end, it is pointed out that there will be a situation in which the taxi industry does not attend and idling is repeated. An Internet industry official said, "We are looking for ways to co-exist with the taxi industry.
