Ciucu acuză „concurența neloială” a companiilor de ridesharing din București și cere reglementare locală

Bucharest's mayor, Ciprian Ciucu, criticizes ridesharing companies for unfair competition against public transport and calls for local regulation. He argues that the current framework was influenced by strong lobbying at the national level, preventing local authorities from managing these services. Ciucu emphasizes the need for local governments to set specific rules for ridesharing, as conditions vary significantly between cities. He also highlights the issue of ridesharing vehicles from other regions operating in Bucharest, which he finds unjust. Ciucu anticipates backlash from public affairs firms representing ridesharing interests in response to his statements.
