Taxi license test

Electric vehicles are in the spotlight among consumers as they have both convenience and economy because

they have lower fuel costs than general internal combustion engine cars and do not need to exchange consumables

such as engine oil. For this reason, the taxi industry is also replacing existing internal combustion

engine vehicles with electric vehicles to reduce vehicle maintenance costs.

However, not a few consumers welcome these electric car taxis (hereinafter referred to as electric taxis).

This is because if you take an electric taxi, you will see the so-called “sickness” symptoms.

The reason why passengers complain of motion sickness in electric taxis can be attributed to the

“characteristics of electric vehicles” and the “driving habits” of taxi drivers who drive the same

as internal combustion engine vehicles without understanding them. 스마트스토어상위노출

First, when an internal combustion engine vehicle steps on the accelerator pedal with a combination

of an engine and a mission, the piston-moving engine gradually increases the output

and the transmission (mission) adjusts the number of stages according to the output to increase the speed.

In addition, if you release your foot from the accelerator pedal while driving at high speed

the engine’s rotation speed decreases, and the vehicle’s speed gradually decreases as it drives coasting.

On the other hand, unlike internal combustion engine models, electric cars are driven only by a combination of batteries

and motors, and when you step on the accelerator pedal, it instantly generates maximum torque and accelerates rapidly.

It is equipped with a function called ‘rehabilitation braking’.

Rehabilitation braking is a function that recovers and stores kinetic energy generated while the vehicle is driving

and it works by instantly decelerating and charging the battery when the vehicle is removed from the accelerator pedal.

Consumers familiar with internal combustion engine vehicles may feel unfamiliar and unnatural

about the rapid acceleration and sudden acceleration of electric vehicles. Due to these characteristics of

electric vehicles, taxi drivers with the so-called “accelerator pedal cut-off” driving habit of repeatedly

stepping on and off the accelerator pedal between operations will realize the worst feeling of repeated

choking like riding a horse, which is a factor that causes passengers to get motion sickness.

In addition, controversy over the recent “suspicious sudden acceleration of electric taxis” is also continuing.

It is not yet clear whether the suspicion of sudden acceleration of electric taxis is a sudden acceleration accident due

to manufacturing defects. On the contrary, some point out that it is a human 災

caused by a taxi driver who is accustomed to one-pedal driving and has to decelerate by mistaking

Whether it is a manufacturing defect or an operation mistake

passengers who use electric taxis are bound to have great anxiety.

For this reason, some even say that “taxi drivers who drive electric taxis need separate electric

vehicle driving education or electric vehicle taxi license tests,” but this seems unlikely.

In the end, it is best to repeat cancellation and re-call if the allocated taxi is an electric

taxi while consumers who feel rejected by electric taxis use the taxi calling app.
