Traffic Ordinance Amendment (Promoting Competition Through Online Ridesharing) Bill

Translated from Hebrew: הצעת חוק לתיקון פקודת התעבורה (קידום התחרות באמצעות תחבורה שיתופית מקוונת)

TL;DRA bill to add a new article to the Traffic Ordinance regulating the registration and operation of online ride-sharing networks (ridesharing) in Israel.

Translated from Hebrew

What does the bill do?

The bill sets a legal framework for operating online ride-sharing networks that connect passengers with private drivers through a technological platform. The network operator must register with a registrar at the Ministry of Transport, under conditions set in the law. A driver may carry passengers for pay through the network without a regular transport license, on condition that they are an Israeli resident aged 21 or over, with a valid driver's license and a suitable vehicle. The network operator must provide required functions such as displaying the driver's details, calculating the price in advance, a rating option and filing complaints. The minister will set a registration fee and detailed rules for implementation.
