In Bucharest the city council just ruled that every taxi ride must go thru a central dispatch. This made all the apps/agregators illegal, Uber included.
Some legal taxi companies say will complain, because they can't imagine that we go back to '80s phone dispatch system, and the customers shall be able to use their apps to book the nearest taxi based on location, what a dispatch will not be able to do.
- TeMPOraL 9y agoThat's interesting, and sounds really disappointing. What are the reasons behind that decision?
- petre 9y agoCorrupt leadership inspired by the 80s "golden era". If they centralize the system, then they could pretend bribes for issuing taxi licenses.
- jopsen 9y agoThat's sad, but also a political issue. You fix it by running for election. I'm happy to avoid workarounds.. like an EU court redefining what a transportation service is.
