Future of the taxi market: Association calls for a legal framework for autonomous vehicles
Representatives of the Federal Association for Taxi and Rental Cars met in Berlin with Federal Transport Minister Patrick Schnieder to discuss key future issues facing the industry. The talks took place as part of a roundtable organized by the Federation of Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises. According to the association, the focus was autonomous driving, the evaluation of the 2021 amendment to the Passenger Transport Act, and the role of taxis in public passenger transport.
Michael Oppermann and Floris Cooijmans represented the association at the meeting.
Regulatory framework for autonomous taxis urged
According to the association, a clear legal framework is required for the future deployment of autonomous vehicles. Robotaxis would have to be integrated into the existing system of passenger transport and operated on the basis of clear specifications. The regulations currently in force for the taxi trade could thus form a suitable legal basis for autonomous taxis as well.
Evaluation of the PBefG amendment in focus
In addition, the association urged to include the effects of the 2021 reform of the Passenger Transport Act on taxi and rental car traffic in the ongoing evaluation. The industry continues to face significant economic pressure. Therefore, a review of the legal changes must also take into account the situation of these market segments.
Taxis as a supplement to public local transport
Another topic was the stronger involvement of the taxi SMEs in public passenger transport. The association advocated using existing SME structures more intensively for on-demand transport. In particular in rural areas, taxis could efficiently and cost-effectively complement mobility services.
The association described the discussions with the Federal Minister of Transport as constructive. According to the organization, the talks on the topics addressed are to be continued. (Source: Federal Association of Taxi and Rental Cars)
