El Ajuntament de Palma has abierto un expediente sanctionor a un taxiista por estafar a un cliente durante una carrera el pasado mes de agosto. The sanction imposed has been imposed 700 euros.
The events happened last August 8, cuando una patrolla de la Policía Local detectedó que a taxi had picked up a client en la carretera de s’Arenal en dirección a la calle Llaüt with a superior luminous indicator with rate 4, which constitutes an irregularity.
The taxi driver charged the user 15 euros for a very short race, lo que le ha supuesto la apertura de un expediente sanctionor por una falta muy serious de 600 euros y otra falta leve por valor de 100 euros. In total, the sanction rises to 700 euros.
El teniente de alcalde de Mobilitat y Polígons Industrials. Toni Deudero, has been taxative before this sanction and has declared that “during the meetings that we have maintained with the taxi sector, los taxiistas nos han insisted on the urgency of eradicating estos comportamientos ilícitos that the only thing that provokes is the discredit of the sector and of the taxi drivers”.
Deudero has reiterated that “desde el Ajuntament de Palma will not permit under any concept that these illegal activities are carried out that harm not only the taxi sector, but the image of the city”.
