TaxiMobility: Ride-Hailing App for People with Disabilities

TaxiMobility is a ride-hailing app designed specifically for people with disabilities. It allows users to request wheelchair-accessible vehicles and drivers trained in assisting passengers with disabilities.

What is TaxiMobility?

TaxiMobility is a ridesharing app launched in 2019 that focuses on providing transportation options for people with disabilities. Unlike mainstream rideshare services, TaxiMobility has a fleet of vehicles that can accommodate wheelchairs, and drivers who are specially trained to assist passengers who have mobility challenges or other disabilities.

The TaxiMobility app allows users to request a ride just like other rideshare apps. But users can specify any special needs, such as requiring a wheelchair-accessible vehicle or extra assistance getting into the vehicle. The app then matches them with an available driver with an appropriate vehicle.

All TaxiMobility drivers go through disability awareness and passenger assistance training. Many drivers themselves have disabilities or have experience working with people with special needs. The company also runs full background checks on all drivers before allowing them onto the platform.

The TaxiMobility fleet includes lift-equipped vans, ramp vehicles, and even a few wheelchair-accessible luxury vehicles for special occasions. With advanced booking, users may also be able to request specialty mobility vehicles like stretcher vans.

TaxiMobility operates in over 25 major US cities so far. While rates are in line with other private transportation services, TaxiMobility offers subsidies and discounts programs to help make rides more affordable for frequent users going to medical appointments, work, school, and other essential trips.
