Road trips are a lot of fun and they’re more about the journey than the destination, but what if that destination is North Korea? Who, in their right mind, would go to North Korea, that too by road? Apparently, Ola thinks that people are very interested in a road trip to North-Korea.
A guy tried to book an Ola cab from Bangalore to North Korea, probably just to see what would happen, and Ola actually approved it. To his surprise, the cab aggregator has actually scheduled it’s trip to one of the most isolated countries in the world and shared the details to Rohit with the driver’s name and that’s not all, he was billed with a massive Rs 1,49,088.
Rohit quickly took screenshots from his phone and posted to microblogging site Twitter keeping Ola in the loop. The funny incident which happened with Rohit on his Ola app seemed to be a technical glitch and now it has been resolved.
Check out these screenshots shared by Rohit Menda:
Meanwhile, on Monday, Ola and Uber’s drivers launched a nationwide strike, a large number of commuters in cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, Chennai, and Bengaluru depend on these online cab aggregators for their daily commute. The strike was called for by Maharashtra Navnirman Vahtuk Sena, the transport wing of Raj Thackeray led-MNS. The drivers had alleged that they weren’t getting their due.
