优步土耳其面临“大考”

An illustration picture shows the logo of car-sharing service app Uber on a smartphone next to the picture of an official German taxi sign in Frankfurt, September 15, 2014. A Frankfurt high court will hold a hearing on a recent lawsuit brought against Uberpop by Taxi Deutschland on Tuesday. San Francisco-based Uber, which allows users to summon taxi-like services on their smartphones, offers two main services, Uber, its classic low-cost, limousine pick-up service, and Uberpop, a newer ride-sharing service, which connects private drivers to passengers - an established practice in Germany that nonetheless operates in a legal grey area of rules governing commercial transportation. The company has faced regulatory scrutiny and court injunctions from its early days, even as it has expanded rapidly into roughly 150 cities around the world.

据土耳其媒体报道,日前,土耳其总理耶尔德勒姆下令更改出租车运营法规,将撤销提供未经许可的小型起重机服务的优步司机的从业执照。此举被视为在即将于6月24日举行的总统和议会选举之前安抚出租车司机的举措之一。

伊斯坦布尔出租车司机协会主席 Eyüp Aksu说,“现在,优步已经不行了”。

他称,现在如果一位优步司机被抓,他不仅将被扣光从业执照上的所有积分,而且将被处以3006土耳其里拉的罚款。他表示,Minicab公司的许可证也被吊销了。

优步在发表的声明称,该公司正与当地所有利益相关方合作,并承诺继续在土耳其工作。
