Guangdong Provincial Communications Department： Didi has always refused data access and cannot effectively target it.

Traffic law enforcement was once unable to effectively target

Cheng Xinghuan, a reporter from Jinyang. com, reported: On the Guangdong Minsheng Hotline today (28th), Wang Fumin, deputy director of Guangdong Province, revealed that at present, more than 20 online car rental platforms have obtained business licenses in Guangdong Province, and 52,260 online taxi driver’s licenses and 50,138 online taxi transportation licenses have been issued, accounting for 17.7% and 30% of the national total respectively, ranking first in the country. However, in the management of online car, Didi Chuxing, a monopoly, has refused to accept data access for supervision, both in Guangdong and in the whole country.

However, for the rapid development of network cars, the supervision of the industry has lagged behind, especially in Yueqing, Wenzhou. On the evening of 26th, Guangdong Provincial Communications Department, Guangzhou Municipal Communications Commission, Shenzhen Municipal Communications Commission and Dongguan Transportation Bureau talked about Didi respectively. In Shenzhen, according to the network car data transmitted by Didi Platform to the government supervision platform (the ride data has not been transmitted), there are still nearly 5,000 drivers and nearly 2,000 vehicles in the platform that have not obtained the operating documents. In Dongguan, there are 19,492 drivers (including 15,584 drivers who obtained the taxi qualification certificate before November 2016), and only 5,204 vehicles have obtained the network car transportation certificate. However, Didi Platform has more than 30,000 drivers and more than 20,000 vehicles providing online car service in Dongguan.

However, even if the government departments intervened early, Didi still "went its own way". In the notification of the interview in Dongguan, the rectification measures promised by Didi Company have not been effectively implemented. For example, it promised not to distribute orders to non-Dongguan license plate vehicles from June, but some citizens still reported that non-Dongguan license plate vehicles would take orders at night. In this year, Dongguan investigated and dealt with 292 cases of illegal network car service, including 61 cases of illegal network car service provided by Didi Company. This number is not worth mentioning compared with the operation of nearly 10,000 driving without a license and 15,000 unlicensed vehicles.

As to why government departments can’t supervise these "black cars", Wang Fumin said that Didi refused to access data to government departments for supervision not only in Guangdong, but also in the whole country, and refused to provide detailed data on drivers and operating vehicles, so it was impossible to carry out targeted law enforcement and could only rely on the original containment. After the rectification of Didi at the end of September, all management departments will obtain the complete data uploaded by Didi, and then effectively retreat, which is expected to be completed before the end of the year.

In addition, after the Wenzhou Yueqing hitchhiking case, Wang Fumin predicted that the next step would be to introduce a policy to put aside the customer service and directly connect with the public security organs.
