what is uberpop?
Uber has confirmed to AFP that is suspending its uberPOP service in France. The news comes after two of its European managers were held by police and questioned, and taxi drivers rioted in the streets. uberPOP is Uber's cheapest type of service, and it competes directly with taxi drivers. The base fare is just â¬1, and from there it costs â¬0.15 per minute. That's a threat to taxi drivers because an Uber fare often works out cheaper than a licensed taxi.
