MetroRide Kids, a Bengaluru-based startup, is set to launch India's First, Safest & most Trusted Transport Service for Kids. It is an innovative app-based transportation service specifically designed for children aged 5-16. They have commenced in Hyderabad already and will soon start services in Bengaluru.
Need for Safe and Reliable Transportation for Children
With the rise of busy work schedules and the increasing demands on parents’ time, finding transportation solutions for children has become a top priority for many families.
MetroRide Kids recognizes this need and is dedicated to providing a safe and secure way for children to travel to their destinations.
Innovative Safety Measures for Peace of Mind
By partnering with parents, hiring trained drivers, and equipping vehicles with live CCTV monitoring, GPS tracking for real-time location updates, and geofencing to ensure vehicles stay within designated zones, the company would secure children’s safety from the moment they step into the vehicle.
In case of emergencies, an SOS button in the cabs provides immediate access to a rapid response team, and vehicle immobilizers allow for remote intervention when needed.
Plus, advanced AI systems monitor driver behavior to promote safe driving practices at all times.
