TMV warns of structural control failure in platform rental cars and urges reforms.
The association has long spoken of structural deficiencies that burden the taxi trade and distort competition. The trigger for the latest criticism has been inspections carried out in several municipalities. In Frankfurt, the supervisory authority found 464 violations. They ranged from expired or deregistered licenses to completely missing permits for vehicles. For Kroker, this picture is no coincidence, but the expression of a problem that has solidified over the years.
"It cannot be that, from these findings, no one learns their lesson. The latest inspections in the cities have uncovered devastating conditions," said Kroker.
Even in Berlin, the market had already started to move. A few months ago, with the help of SPD MP Tino Schopf, around 1,700 rental cars were taken off the road. The measures were at the time mainly due to political pressure. Regionally, there was still discussion then about whether Berlin represents an exception. In the meantime, other cities show that the notion of an isolated case is hardly tenable.
Kroker states the accusation clearly
Politics, he argues, must not ignore the indications from the authorities any longer. He calls for taking decisive action against providers that repeatedly violate rules or even completely evade them. From the association's point of view, it is essential to ensure a level playing field and the enforcement of those rules. Only in this way can the taxi industry survive economically and continue to fulfill its mandate in public transport.
TMV hopes that the coming weeks will bring momentum to a debate that has so far often been stalled between questions of jurisdiction and political interests. Kroker's central demand remains unchanged: the authorities should act before further distortions of competition arise and trust in regulation is lost. It is time to finally shut down the 'Uber system' so that the taxi industry is not further threatened in its existence.
