Lately, we often hear this joke: if you dial any four numbers after the "star" button on the phone, you will get into a taxi service. This is a struggle for almost every penny in the sector. The entry of brands such as Bolt and Uber has intensified the competition. Both companies began to digitalize and competition affected prices. Obviously, it is probably the only competitive sector in the country. As competition heats up, prices fall. In other words, this struggle affects those who shoot for a penny, as well as those who fight for every penny. But this is not our topic ...

There is such a practice abroad. There it is called riding sharing, and in our country it is called a companion or road friend. Never mix with a taxi.

What is a taxi? You place your order, and he delivers you to the apartment for the amount determined by the company.

What is redsharing? You share your journey with others. The goal, in the vernacular, is to withdraw money for gasoline. The fact is that the passenger chooses the route he wants to go, as well as the fare. If the driver is satisfied with the amount you offer, you will become a companion and friend.

Draw a one-time line under an issue - the driver's goal is not to save, but to reduce costs.

In a simple example, the working principle will be clearer to you. Suppose you are a resident of Bina settlement and want to go to Ganja. Leaving your home can be very costly. As a step, I am sure that you will have to take a "manat taxi" to the "Koroglu" metro station, or take a bus. Note that buses do not work on Saturdays and Sundays during the pandemic. During the week, you can reach 40 minutes by bus "Koroglu" m / s at best. From there you have to change the bus again - it will take you 40 minutes to travel without traffic jams until "January 20" m / s. Then you will wait for the minibus or taxi going to Ganja to fill up. At best, this process takes at least 30 minutes. The distance from Baku to Ganja is covered by a minibus or taxi in about 4-5 hours. For this you will have to spend 10-15 manats. It is not difficult to calculate the cost and the cost incurred.

I suggest that you do not give yourself this oppression, so let's go back to Bina. Pick up your smartphone and download the "Road Friend" mobile application. How to load dozens / hundreds of drivers and potential passengers like you. It is very convenient to register. If you are registered, you are a member of this assistance family. Then mark Ganja as the destination. Now add the amount in your heart to the appropriate box. If you have an idea, you can even book a passenger seat that you want to sit on. Now wait for confirmation from any driver going in that direction. And so on. But keep in mind that this is not a taxi service. The driver will pick you up on the road. We are confident in your understanding. We are sure that you will get along well along the way.

Of course, it is possible to return using "Road Friend". Plus, you'll be getting rid of clutter you don't need.

If the principle of operation of the system is clear to you, consider the cost you will incur (for example, 10 manats) and add convenience.

Follow the same principle along Baku and the Absheron Peninsula.
