So as to make things clear, UberPop has been outlawed in France months ago but keeps operating.
The fines are considered "operating costs" by UberPop, who takes care of paying the fines when UberPop drivers are getting caught.

- sp332 11y agoThere are quotes on "illicit" because it is a quote.
- aikah 11y agoTo be accurate, the website and app itself (UberPop) aren't outlawed YET. BUT it is illegal for UberPop drivers to continue taking clients and driving for UBER. So technically UberPop isn't illegal, UberPop drivers ARE on the other hand performing an illegal activity. HOWEVER in France, it is illegal to promote an illegal activity. Yesterday I heard an ad on GenerationFM promoting Uber and recruiting drivers. So on this ground, managers at Uber France can be sued. I think it's foolish to work for Uber France. Uber might pay you a lawyer or any fines if you get sued, but If you're sentenced and sent to prison? is it worth it to go to prison for Uber? or to have a record? because you're career will basically be over. And good luck moving to US with a record even if it is what Uber promised you if it would happen.
