Abstract

<p><em>This study aims to examine the differences between conventional taxis and online taxis and whether the existing legal regulations are sufficient to regulate the two modes of transportation. The author's curiosity comes from seeing the past when taxis were considered a luxury means of transportation that people rarely use except for emergencies, so city buses and public transportation become the choice of citizens. The choice that was "forced" to be taken considering the low cost and far coverage. Now, when online taxis offer low costs and easy access, the means of transportation that have become "gods" have fallen. The drivers gasped, the transportation entrepreneurs were distracted to finance their business empire and the passengers were no longer greeted by buses and public transportation. This research is a sociological legal research which makes a phenomenon that exists in society and its influence on existing legal rules. The research results show that the difference between conventional taxis and online taxis lies in the amount of tariff, standardization of services, determination of routes and special features and legal protection. The government needs to be firm in regulating the existence of online transportation, given the potential for conflict over disparity in tariff differences and the importance of legal protection for drivers and passengers in driving safety.</em></p><p><strong><em>Keywords:</em></strong></p><p><em><em>Online Taxi; Conventional Taxi; Legal.</em><br /></em></p>

Summary

Pendahuluan

“kondisi awal” struktur masyarakat selalu berada pada kondisi yang kurang imbang. 1. Hukum dapat bermakna jika dalam pelaksanaannya legislatif dibantu oleh keberadaan hakim sebagai pemikir pembantu yang tidak hanya menaruh perhatian pada kata-kata dan perintah. Berangkat dari pandang di atas apabila kita melihat masa lalu ketika taksi dianggap alat transportasi mewah yang jarang orang menggunakannya kecuali karena keadaan darurat, maka bis kota dan angkot menjadi pilihan warga masyarakat. Meskipun tidak mengatur secara total, namun aturan yang dibuat dan penegakan hukumnya dapat dilaksanakan dengan mudah mengingat kendali pemerintah atas rakyatnya masih besar. 3. Dalam bidang ekonomi, ada empat fungsi negara, yaitu sebagai penjamin (provider) kesejahteraan rakyat, negara sebagai pengatur (regulator), negara sebagai pengusaha (entrepreneur) atau menjalankan sektor-sektor tertentu melalui Badan Usaha Milik Negara (BUMN), dan negara sebagai wasit (umpire) untuk merumuskan standar-standar yang adil mengenai sector ekonomi termasuk perusahaan negara (state corporation). Sebagai negara yang menganut paham negara kesejahteraan, maka negara dapat menggunakan hukum sebagai salah satu sarana untuk mengatur dan menyelenggarakan serta menjamin kesejahteraan rakyatnya. Penulis akan mencoba menjelaskan dan memaparkan secara singkat mengenai perbedaan yang signifikan antara taksi konvensional dan taksi online dan apakah aturan hukum taksi online telah mampu mewadahi keberadaannya
