“At present, car-sharing services have become very popular, primarily in large cities. An increase in the number of car-sharing vehicles naturally led to the fact that people who drive rental cars began to get into accidents more often, ”he said in an interview with the website“ Arguments and Facts ”.
According to him, it is important to increase the requirements for users of the service. For example, Chernikov believes, it is possible to forbid driving a rented car if the driver has been repeatedly noticed in illegal behavior behind the wheel.
“How to implement this? By creating databases of violators by car-sharing companies, and, if necessary, sending requests to the State traffic inspectorate to check individuals for deprivation of the right to control and the presence of gross and systematic violations of traffic rules, ”he said.
Earlier, an independent expert in the transport industry, Alexei Tuzov, in an interview with the publication PolitExpert, appreciated the popularity of car sharing in Russia.
