This is all very easily said but where is the evidence? I just do not see it nor do I read about it on travel forums other than by those pushing uber. The taxi rates around CDG are zone B, possibly zone C rates and are higher than the rates in Paris. One should expect to pay more for a taxi out near CDG.

The rates between CDG and Paris are fixed and only taxis have access to the HOV or bus lanes. It´s a 135€ fine if a Uber driver is caught in a bus lane.

I live in Paris and I occasionally use Uber but probably use Snapcar more often than uber or taxis for trips to the airports. I don´t portend any one, specific transportation solution. Each has its place. What I find disconcerting are the quick dismissals about using taxis and that the drivers are all thieves but somehow all uber drivers are saints. This is simply nonsense. 85% of the taxis parisiens are driven by the owner of the taxi himself. Most of these drivers are small business operators associated with a single company, Taxi G7, for dispatch purposes only. A driver´s ultimate obligation is to the Préfecture de Police which issues licenses and regulates how drivers operate.

Taxi drivers are not a group of thieves that should be treated with distrust and disdain.
