Taxis in Lagos come in a variety of shapes, sizes and conditions. Unfortunately, Lagosians hardly get their money’s worth of service from the cab drivers they patronize. Rides tend to be expensive, uncomfortable and insecure. Cab owners might respond to accusations of being exploitative by pointing out that things aren’t that smooth for them either- they have costs of their own to cover, and also have to wade through traffic situations that portend danger to their vehicles, and sometimes, to their lives.

The Cab Management Company (CMC) is a taxi service which comes to the aid of cab owners and passengers alike, by providing solutions which revolutionize the way taxis operate in Lagos. It turns cars into licensed taxis which generate revenue for car owners daily, while giving taxi users a safe and comfortable ride. What it offers is a platform for car owners to earn money from their vehicles, without having to worry about the state of their car at any given time; they promise an impressive set of technology-driven check systems that give stakeholders greater control over their cars, and ensure that passengers enjoy their rides to the fullest. CMC places a premium on complying with Lagos State’s laws, a focus which provides protective cover for car owners; they won’t have to worry about falling foul of the law. Potential stakeholders could choose from four plans, offering them varying degrees of control and potential earnings of up to ₦180,000 monthly from their investments. There’s a provision for dealing with security concerns as well: cars managed by the CMC have geo-fencers, geo-trackers and in-cab cameras installed in them; these devices are connected to a control centre and monitored by the company’s tech-surveillance team. Through the stakeholders’ application, car owners can also keep tabs on what goes on in their cars in real time.

For passengers, CMC’s cabs do more than just convey them to their destinations.  They can keep themselves entertained with movies and music videos on multimedia devices, connect to and use free in-cab Wi-Fi, and charge the batteries of their mobile devices, all at no additional cost. The safety guarantee of this company rests, among other things, upon a combination of integrated surveillance systems and professional drivers. CMC’s cabs aren’t difficult to spot; they are branded in the company’s red and white colours, making them more visible and accessible than their app alone would allow. Rides can be ordered online via the CMC website.

Car owners and cab users who fret about the seen and unseen costs they incur from Lagos’ chaotic roads and stressful traffic could do with the kind of service Cab Management Company offers. Its security provisions and the control it gives car owners makes it a taxi management service you might want to try out, if you are intent on turning your car into a money making machine.
