For a number of years I’ve wanted to start a business to transport kids to their activities. I know the concept of Uber for kids already exist in some places but it’s not near me.
I start thinking about how I could recruit some drivers, run some background checks and then start recruiting weary parents who are tired of driving. Then I think about the logistics of all of it and take a walk instead lol
Not a business but a product. Lunch box that has a plate.
Uber for kids is really an idea i would strongly not recommend.
i like it in theory, but in practice this is a legal minefield. go start a business absolutely, but i strongly encourage you to avoid this particular one.
- police checks - that doesn’t mean the drivers wont do anything
- what happens in a car crash
- what happens if the driver has a temper and the kids start crying or being disruptive and the driver looses it?
- what happens if the driver goes to the wrong location
- what happens is whoever is meant to pickup isnt there or is the wrong person
- what happens if the kids puke in the back of the car
- what happens if the kid has a medical emergency in the car
- depending on how young how do you deal with carseats
- what happens to the driver if they get stopped by the cops for speeding, with two random kids in the back and detained an the kids dont even know their home tel number or address.
there are so many variables that could go wrong even in a softplay kids club, let alone in a ‘freelancers’ car, even if they are verified and have a camera in the car.
As I look at the world, I realize that our future lies in decentralization. We are heading towards total control by states, a world without borders where you have nowhere to run.
Only decentralization and cryptography can help. It can’t be bribed, tortured or killed.
I want to do something in that direction, but I realize for sure that I will have to give up fame. Only the “mask” will help me to continue to live and develop this idea.So if anyone wants to make the internet freer, that would be awesome, just remember your safety
You’d have to recruit drivers that also have a background in child care which doesn’t sound too difficult
