Are you a private individual and have never used car rental with driver?
We explain the difference between TAXI and NCC.
Although the purpose of the service is almost identical, there are small differences that distinguish the two transport opportunities.
The CLASSIC TAXI (public transport non-scheduled), is structurally characterized by changes to him only intended, such as color, the lettering with the number of radio taxis on the counters, the coats of arms of the City of belonging, the taximeter, the light signal “taxi “Placed on the roof of the vehicle (better known as” parrot “in GERGO); there are also any advertisements on the bodywork, as well as the shift system to which drivers are subjected.
The taxi has a casual clientele, mostly oriented on city routes and AIRPORT routes. They are subjected to the tariff of the taximeter (determined by a mixed calculation between the route taken and the time taken).
Taxis are reserved for pitches well identified by a yellow line on the asphalt in certain areas of the city or airports, and can be booked by calling the radio taxi or stopping it on the street. Scheduled reservations are therefore excluded.
The Hire With Driver (private transport), does not have a specific color assigned and its CARS are not subject to specific modifications, but simply carry the “NCC” mark, the authorization number visible inside the windshield and the shield on the rear of the vehicle.
Customers may be random in the case of requests on the spot, or usual, in the case of continuous bookings over time, generally consolidated by trust between travelers and the driver.
There are no dedicated pitches on public land, so the NCC always starts with a private garage. For this reason, for example, outside an airport, the traveler will not have to look for the classic standard pitch for public transport: the NCC will be accessible through certain references communicated during booking, also with the help of any signs names, but everything is facilitated by the fact that the two interlocutors are in possession of the respective telephone numbers.
The NCC is very active in the extra-urban routes, airport but not only, and above all provides service at times that can be customized by the client according to his needs. It is aimed at individual travelers or groups and groups. One of the biggest advantages is definitely the absence of the meter: no surprise, the rate is agreed during the booking. Like the TAXI, the NCC also benefits from road traffic, so it can travel the preferential lanes, has access to the ZTL zones, and is not subject to traffic blocs, for example imposed by the municipality for reasons of air pollution or other.
