Car2Go: A New Concept That Could Eliminate Problems Associated With Cars
Although we are still talking about an experiment, Car2go can be considered a real alternative to the increasing number of cars and the pollution from the big cities. It is believed that people would start using this concept in 10-20 years constantly, but the experiment is successful in a few cities of Germany, United States and Canada.
So, what is this concept about? The cars will be parked in the city, in some special places. The people that need them would take them, driving as long as they need them. Then, they will leave the car, and another client will take it from the respective place. The client will be taxed considering the gas consumption and the time. However, several security concepts must be introduced before this system could be used commonly.
The first problem would be entering the car. Of course, you can’t leave the keys in the contact. However, using the satellite system, those cars cold be watched and controlled, so only the entitled people would use them.
Another important problem is connected with the behavior of people. We are certain that the majority of people would take care of the cars, bus we should also consider the problem of smokers. Moreover, some people could also think about taking some “souvenirs” from the car.
The results of the experiment were surprising. It seems like the people are more than happy about the usefulness of this system and about the time saved, so we could consider that Car2go will be implemented in the civilized cities faster. Soon, you won’t have to worry about your car, and you will also be able to drive to your friends for a few drinks without worrying about the car. On the other hand, it will be unpleasant for the people not to find a car of this kind when they need it.
