With every passing second city limits are expanding. Thousands of people are floating to city to fulfill their dreams. And what all you get to see is traffic, traffic and traffic. People travel with every possible mode of transport – metro, locals, cabs, and what not, just to avoid to traffic. What has best happened is the introduction of Ola and Uber cabs.
Ola and Uber
have made significant difference in lives of riders as well as drivers. They
have given a great source of earning to thousands of drivers across India.
I have traveled
though cabs many times, but recently I got introduce to Ola Auto. I have heard
about Ola cabs, but Ola Auto was all a different. So the experience I am
sharing is my first self solo Ola trip in Auto.
Booking an Ola Auto
I regularly go
office by my own bike, but unfortunately bike ran out of patrol. So the first
thing that struck was a private auto or cab. So I decided to book Ola to work.
Firstly I
downloaded the app and performed all the basic account creation and Ola wallet
steps. This was pretty easy. However I saw a tiny little auto icon at the bottom
of my app saying Auto. This was something new I was seeing. The tiny little
icon said 5 mins and it was similar to cab booking. The first thing I noticed was the fare- Ola Auto’s are way cheaper than cabs. So, I quickly booked the
auto and was successful. So yes, that was my first self solo Ola Auto booking.
First Self Solo Ola Auto Experience
After booking the auto, I observed it was pretty much similar to booking cabs. I could track the auto moving towards my location. It also had the same OTP concept and the details of the driver were shared with me.
The auto reached the pickup point before I had to call the driver. Before sitting in to the auto I checked the number plate, asked the driver's name and gave him the OTP.
This is what I had experienced and tracked the route.
Like the top line of the app says "Enjoy your ride" Yes, I was enjoying. It is actually fun to see the auto moving towards the destination.
And finally I reach my destination |
Last I thanked the driver to provide me such a safe ride and made me reach on time. I also rated the ride.
Do rate the ride if you have had safe ride to your drop point. It means a lot to the drivers.
Stop thinking and start riding
