Cabs are protesting in Paris and the Île-de-France region against the reduction in mileage rates for medical transport, provided for in the new Health Insurance agreement, APA reports citing Sortiraparis.

Escargot operations and massive blockades are expected from December 3 to 5, 2024.

Attention motorists, traffic could be difficult from December 3 to 5 in the Paris region! From this Tuesday, December 3, 2024, Paris and the Île-de-France region will be the scene of a major mobilization by cab drivers, Franceinfo informs. At issue is the reduction in the kilometric rate for medical transport, from €1.50 to €1 per kilometer. This change, included in the new health insurance agreement, directly threatens an activity that accounts for up to 90% of the sales of many professionals.
