Moroccan Taxi Drivers Flout Coronavirus Safety Rules, Overcharge Passengers

Among these provisions is the reduction in the number of passengers in large taxis from 6 to 3 people. According to the testimony of users, the majority of taxi owners have derogated from the rules, in total disregard of the safety measures.

In Casablanca, Rabat and Salé, the owners subject the users to a despicable blackmail, forcing them to choose between the double fare or the trip with 6 passengers.

While calling on the authorities to ensure the implementation of the new rules, the victims of these blackmail deplore the lack of solidarity and mutual aid shown by the taxi owners.
