Taxis offer new apps for womens security in mumbai

                          


With increasing concern over women's safety in metropolitan cities, fleet taxi services 
have started offering several 'applications' to make them and their families feel secure.
These applications include features such as tracking cab movement on request of the 
commuter, sending regular updates to a family member of the commuter or having dedicated 
services for women after dark.
This service enables women commuters to arrange for a designated person or a family member 
receive SMS alerts about the location of the taxi and journey every 15 minutes.
This will ensure a sense of safety and assurance for the lady passenger. 
This is an opt-in service and free of charge for all.
Commuters can opt for the service at the time of booking by giving the phone number on which 
alerts have to be sent.
The alternate number is stored in user's personal account and the commuter can choose to 
activate it or deactivate it at any point of time through the company call centre or website.
