Casablanca: taxis angry at… motorcycle taxis

Some applications including “InDrive” have started offering passenger transport services by motorcycle in some cities such as Casablanca. Professionals in the sector are protesting against this new practice and are calling on the authorities to take responsibility.

This new service offering from applications operating in the transport sector has sparked anger among taxi drivers who hold the government, and mainly the Ministries of the Interior and Transport, responsible for this situation. Mustapha Chaoun, national secretary of the Democratic Organization of Transport and Multimodal Logistics, denounced the transport of passengers on “traditional motorcycles in Casablanca and elsewhere.”
