The problem of lack of space for transport is becoming more urgent every day. There are more and more cars, but there is less space. And now another hurrying car owner leaves his home/office and finds his car tightly blocked by someone else's car. Not everyone leaves their cell phone number on the glass, and if a kick on the wheel in the hope of turning on the alarm and luring the car owner was not successful, then the consequences can be the most unexpected, up to property damage.
Fortunately, there are people who seek to change the current situation and make their lives and the lives of other car owners easier. There is a car club called "Call my car" (CallMyCar). Its meaning is to realize the possibility of communication between any drivers, naturally, on an anonymous basis. It is enough to link the number of your car to your cell phone number, after which anyone who finds your car preventing him from leaving calls the club number. This call will be automatically redirected to your number, notifying you of the need to move the car. Their SMS service works similarly, however, all this costs at least some money. And recently the Android application CallMyCar appeared, and now you do not need to pay at all for using the CallMyCar service.
The application duplicates the capabilities of the SMS service and allows you to send requests to the service for the presence of a car owner whose car prevents you from leaving, in the club, and the ability to notify him. You can also use the app to accept requests from other drivers if your car prevents them from leaving.
If you have not heard of the CallMyCar club before, then you can learn more about the principles of their work on the club's website. There are also described ways of interacting with participants through a call to the club's unified federal number and via SMS.
It's worth noting that the idea and implementation of CallMyCar is really cool. Why do many people hesitate to leave their cell phone number on the glass? Obviously, shining a personal mobile number in public like this is not the best idea, and the risk of becoming a victim of a prank or getting on the list of good spammers will not please anyone. In this case, no one will recognize your number, and you can safely stick the service number on the glass (they also have their own branded stickers).
The only thing that limits the use of the CallMyCar club now is that not everyone knows about it, but every driver who values his time and respects the time of others can become a part of it right now and help in spreading information about it at least among acquaintances and friends—drivers. Fortunately, with the advent of the Android application, using the service has become even more convenient, and making your life and the lives of other people more pleasant is a worthy and quite normal desire for any conscious person.
