Sharing economy plays a new role in the United States

Abstract: according to the daily mail on August 6, Timothy hochstedler, an Amish man, recently launched a carriage sharing service in Cologne, Michigan, USA. passengers can enjoy a beautiful journey for only $5 (34 yuan).


Although the coach service has nothing to do with Uber and can't use a mobile phone to call for a car, passengers have said that in such a region lacking of car sharing options, "Amish Uber" is undoubtedly a convenient way to travel. Becky Phelps, a passenger, praised the carriage service for giving people a choice when they can't, don't want to or shouldn't drive. "Uber is a great platform, and every year something new will come up. Uber is very popular now, so I launched Amish Uber, where passengers can be sent directly to the door," hoshdler said


There are two signs on the carriage to let potential passengers know about the carriage service: one is with a recognizable Uber sign with a horse and a carriage pattern on it, and the other is a handwritten note with a $5 (about RMB 34) carriage line on it. For those who are used to pressing a button to get to the car, it doesn't seem exciting. But in Cologne, passengers can enjoy a beautiful trip for just $5 (34 yuan), which may be the best way to travel next to taxis.


Hoshdler said he mainly provides transport services for foreigners, but also for local people. Passengers can also choose to seat together. According to wwmt, "Amish Uber" will appear at the 81st Abbott Magic Convention in Cologne this weekend.
