The Taxis-Pimem association has asked the Balearic Government to reject the granting of nearly 10,000 licenses for ride-hailing vehicles (VTCs) in the Balearic Islands, arguing that it would be "a catastrophe" leading to the "complete collapse" of all transportation options in the islands. This statement was made by the president of the taxi drivers' association, Biel Moragues, after a meeting held this Wednesday at the Consolat de Mar with the President of the Government, Marga Prohens, and the Minister of Housing, Territory, and Mobility, José Luis Mateo. The meeting served to assess the recent rulings by the High Court of Justice of the Balearic Islands (TSJIB), which requires the Government to process these applications, which had been denied during the previous legislature, and which questions the potential arbitrariness of the VTC-to-taxi ratio.
