Italian taxi-drivers on strike

More than 25 thousand people are participating in the action. They are protesting against the authorities’ plan to make the passenger market more competitive.

At the same time it will soon be possible to order a taxi by SMS in Dubai. The possibility will be introduced next month.

Advertisement hoardings containing code numbers of taxi stations will be installed in the city by then. Passengers will have to wait for their taxi near the hoarding where they order it.
