Costa Rica taxi drivers to march against Uber

Friday, October 21, 2016


Taxi drivers plan to stage another demonstration against ride-hailing service Uber in San José, Costa Rica. They are demanding that the Constitutional Chamber of the Supreme Court, or Sala IV, issue a ruling on a suit presented in 2015 regarding the legality of Uber‘s operations in Costa Rica.

Uber launched operations here in August 2015 but Traffic Police soon began fining drivers and confiscating their vehicles, maintaining that the service is illegal.
