Taxi Drivers to Stage Another Protest Across Dublin Today Against Uber's Fixed Rate Charges - 03/12/2025

Another rush hour protest by taxi drivers against Uber’s new fixed rates is set to take place across Dublin this afternoon.Organisers of the protest said that they “apologise again” in advance for the disruption, but insisted the action is necessary to “secure the future for all the drivers and families suffering with uncertainty”.The drivers have accused Uber of undermining the regulated taxi fare structure set by the National Transport Authority (NTA) with its new fixed rate system.Uber recently introduced the optional fixed-price model, guaranteeing passengers a maximum fare upfront instead of the usual estimated range that can rise with traffic or route changes.We were joined on The Agenda this morning by spokesperson at Taxi Drivers Ireland, David Mitchell, to find out more about this.
