Uber still offering rides in Belgium despite court order

Share

Despite seized vehicles, a court order and possible €10,000 fine (per pickup!), Uber says its UberPOP ride-sharing service remains available in Brussels. In its blog, the company complained that the original lawsuit was filed by Brussels radio taxi companies trying to limit choice, and that “if anyone should be filing lawsuits, it’s Brussels consumers.” Concluding the truculent post, Uber said it would “continue to provide our car-sharing platform,” which we assume means that it’ll carry on operations. We’ll have to see if it sticks to its guns considering the looming fines, and what its opponents’ next move will be.
