Mobile taxi cops to make cab-riding safer
Seoul city government will introduce a "mobile taxi cop service" to
ensure safer cab-riding, an official said yesterday.
Each taxi will have a specific bar code inside and outside of the cab
that the mobile phone can recognize, and by placing the phone on the
bar code, the cab information will be stored into the mobile phone so
that passengers can text-message it to their friends or family.
"Efforts are being made in light of an increasing number of crimes
related to taxis, to ensure safer cab-riding," the city government
official said.
The service is still in its planning stage and concrete details are
scheduled to be announced in November. The service may be available
early next year, the official said.
