This was reported by RIA Novosti with reference to the press service of the Department of Transport of Moscow.

“We plan to allow car sharing operators to work, provided that their cars will be rented for at least five days,” Liksutov said.

Moreover, such a proposal will be valid for those who have work passes. According to him, before starting a car rental, you will need to enter the pass number in the application of the car sharing operator.

He also said that the second prerequisite in the event of the resumption of car sharing will be strict compliance with the recommendations of the Federal Service for Supervision of Consumer Rights Protection and Human Welfare on anti-epidemic measures.

The department also said that rumors about the possible resumption of car sharing from May 18 are untrue. It is noted that this “issue will be submitted to the Rospotrebnadzor office in Moscow, only after they are agreed upon and when the companies fulfill their short-term rental requirements, the service is possible, this should also be reflected in the decree of the mayor”.

On May 10, Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin announced that car sharing was stopped in the capital due to the situation with the spread of coronavirus.
