Abstract
Transportation development has revolutionized ride-hailing to e-hailing. This alteration impacts many aspects, mostly in economics and employment opportunity. However, this triggers competition with the traditional; moreover, the absence of significant regulation and standards for operation raises conflicts and an uneven market. This research concerns how e-hailing taxi must be regulated under Indonesian law for its certainty and expediency. This considers that the operation of e-hailing taxi in Indonesia is not sufficiently regulated, neither from security risks, tariff limits rates, nor in terms of skilled quality for the labor and so on. The researcher found, if there is no certainty for tis app-based transportation laws, the effects will create an unhealthy and imbalanced market, high-risks, and double standard operation.
