Selected companies give a customer the opportunity to use a combination of modern technology (Uber) and completely different attitude to the process of transportation (TrafiCar) - carsharing. Modern solutions can substitute old-fashioned means of transport. Flexible market proves that there is still a plenty of room for innovative solutions. The results of questionnaire presented on social media on a group of 285, mostly young (18-25 years old) people, proved that major factor in selection are the price of the product.
