A free of charge taxi service for those with financial difficulties is provided in the Capital. An inhabitant of Bucharest gives free rides to those having financial and health difficulties, without charging them. The young’s man money pay for the expenses that reach a monthly amount of a few thousands Romanian new lei.
It is a volunteering activity, and the young man who initiated this service spends monthly from his own pocket, more than 2,000 lei. He is satisfied, however, that he can help those with disabilities.
To qualify for a free ride, all the customer needs to do is to make a phone call. Within minutes, the car is there.
However, the young man said that the people’s mistrust is quite challenging.
Currently, the project has developed only in the 2nd and 3rd districts, but they plan to expand these services in the near future.
