Abstract

The article analyzes the current system of regulation and organization of taxi transportation in the Russian Federation and some foreign megacities. The author points out the imperfection of the system of issuing permits for the right to carry out taxi transportation in our country. Based on foreign experience, the author substantiates the paramount importance of the driver requirements imposed in the largest megacities of the world. A comparative assessment of the safety of passenger cab transportation with the level of accidents on road transport in the Russian Federation and Western Europe is given. The decrease in the safety of passenger cab transportation in Moscow in recent years compared with previous years, as well as in comparison with the accident rate in the Russian Federation was revealed. It is shown that the value of the index of social risk in taxi services in the capital exceeds the national level by about 300%. The author substantiates the existence of a correlation between the safety of transportation in the taxi industry and the income level of the taxi driver. The mathematical dependences of the driver’s salary on the revenue and the duration of work are determined on the basis of the data obtained in Moscow. The article analyzes the consequences of the emergence of the transportation network company (TNC)—aggregators for ordering transportation services and their impact on the organization of taxi transportation. The article shows a drop in the real income of taxi drivers in Moscow as a result of activities of TNC (aggregators). On the basis of the performed research, a forecast of the development of the taxi transportation market in our country is made.
