Elle Holland Current Event #24

Uber services are leaving Denmark in April. The government is passing a new law that will make the business untenable. The new laws are that all taxis are required to have taxi meters and video surveillance cameras. This will affect 2,000 uber drivers and 30,000 riders in Copenhagen, the only danish city where Uber is running.

This really sucks for the people in Denmark because Uber is such a revolutionary and conveinient mode of transportation. The people now have to ride in actual taxis instead of calling up an uber. I do think it is good that they are putting laws in  place to keep people safe while getting a lift.
