The taxi strike in Málaga reaches its second day
The strike, convened on Saturday night by surprise, has been joined by taxi drivers from other towns on the Costa del Sol. They are protesting what they consider intrusiveness on behalf of hired cars with a driver, such as Uber and Cabify...
Today, at Málaga's airport, long queues of passengers trying to catch buses in light of the absence of taxis.
Right in front, taxi drivers are protesting. Colleagues from other autonomous communities have come to support them.
They're calling for the 35 Cabify vehicles that came from Madrid to Málaga for the fair to be taken off the road. They are accusing them of carrying out practices for which they lack authorisation.
For its part, Cabify has denounced aggressions to three drivers and damages to 15 vehicles.
On Wednesday, taxi drivers will meet with leaders from the Department of Development of the Government of Andalusia to try to look for solutions and bring an end to the strike that has seen taxis from all towns on the Costa del Sol joining today.
