How to travel safe
in this pandemic ?

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has impacted every sector of the
business, which includes even the tourism and transportation
industry. With the fear of community spread around the world,
people are shying away from public transport. But how can a taxi
app make a difference?

With the fear of transmission trough contact and community spread
in various areas, governments and authorities are having a difficult
time in tracing the source of every patient and to create their route
map, in order to track and stop the transmission of this deadly virus
to others. Here, a taxi app can be the ideal solution. The personal
information of the passenger, their travel history like the source,
destination and time of travel can be determined. Similarly, the
details of the driver can be obtained. When a patient is confirmed
to be positive for COVID-19, the details of the ride and whomever
they came in contact with can be deduced. Hence, preventive
measures can be taken effectively.

During the ongoing pandemic, it's highly unsafe to use public
transport facilities like buses and trains as you come in contact with
various unknown persons. Here is where the taxi has a major role to
play. When you book a taxi through the app, you ensure that you
are travelling with someone you know plus the driver, whose
contact and details can be availed in the app. Similarly, the driver
can obtain the details of the passengers. The cab can be sanitized
after each ride. This ensures the maximum safety of the passenger
as well as the driver.
