The history of cabs in France

Cabs since 1637!

It’s hard to imagine, but the first available carriage service was created in 1637. 20 years later, during the reign of Louis XIV, the profession was first regulated. Louis XIV issued 600 authorizations for the use of carriages in the capital. Each vehicle will be equipped with a number. Over the years, legislation has been tightened, and the number of vehicles has grown steadily. In 1820, for example, there were more than 2,000 carriages circulating in Paris for around 750,000 inhabitants. At the time, there were 104 parking spaces reserved for cabs.

Electric cab

Contrary to popular belief, the electric car is not an invention of the last decade. Indeed, the first electric car, or rather the first electric carriage, was tested for the first time in Paris in 1897. It could carry up to 3 people at a speed of 20 km/h. However, it was not sufficiently profitable and was abandoned in 1902. The story doesn’t say whether, at the time, the electric cab was invented out of concern for the environment and to protect the planet.

Cab fares

In 1909, customers had to be informed about cab fares. It was at this precise moment that the taximeter appeared. It allowed pricing to be based on distance travelled and vehicle occupancy time. It was precisely on this date that the word “cab” was born. Two years later, cab drivers staged their first strike to protest against new taxes on benzol, the fuel used at the time. Finally, in 1914, over 1,100 Paris cabs were requisitioned to ferry as many troops as possible to the front for the war.

Cab and Vtc

In 2015, the Thévenoud law was created in response to claims by cab drivers that VTC platforms were illegal and unfair. This law made it possible to set up a system where only cabs have a monopoly on marauding, while VTC drivers can only pick up customers by prior reservation. The law also makes the use of a credit card payment terminal compulsory for cab drivers.

Taxi devant l'hôtel Renaissance 5 étoiles à Aix en Provence.

Cab – Renaissance Hotel in Aix en Provence

Last week, I transported a customer who wanted to go to the Renaissance Hotel in Aix-en-Provence. He had booked his cab fare to Marignane only 1 hour before I picked him up with our Hotel cab fare simulator.

 

Why did you choose our cab?

My customer was very friendly and eager to talk. So naturally I started chatting to him, and asked him why he had chosen our Aix’Pert cab to make the journey from Marignane to Aix-en-Provence. His answer was simple: he had been able to book quickly on our website thanks to our simulator, which had made his life much easier.

 

Why choose the Hôtel Renaissance?

I then asked him why he had chosen the Renaissance hotel in Aix-en-Provence. I understood that this was a top-of-the-range hotel, a 5-star luxury hotel with a very good reputation in our region. He told me that he was on a business trip and that this hotel allowed him to organize conferences and rent a conference room.

 

Aix en Provence, an accessible city!

What’s more, Aix-en-Provence is within easy reach of Bouc-Bel-Air, Marseille, Pélissanne and Salon-de-Provence, which meant his employees could join him for the conference. Subsequently, we were fortunate enough to provide professional cab services for his staff. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank him in passing. We proposed a cab quote to our customer to transport all his employees. It was a quick quote that we sent out just 20 minutes after his request.

How do I pay for a cab?

People often ask how to pay for a cab and whether they accept credit cards. We’ve got all the answers in this article, which we hope will give you some concrete answers about cab payment methods. First of all, we would like to remind you that cab fares are subject to agreement, which means that the fare is fixed.

Paying for a cab by credit card:

You can pay for your cab by credit card, with or without contact. Although contactless payment has a ceiling amount for security reasons, it is perfectly possible to carry out this operation in a cab. For longer journeys, cab drivers are equipped with a card reader so you can pay directly on board. We take this opportunity to remind you that only the amount shown on the meter is binding. If a cab driver shows you the fare to pay on his app, be aware that it’s a scam. It’s completely forbidden. In our case, we accept Visa, MasterCard and American Express.

Paying cash for a cab:

If you prefer, you can also pay in cash. In this case, we advise you to have some change with you so that the driver can give change properly, but normally he has everything he needs on board. However, you’ll have to pay for your trip in euros.

Paying for a cab with your smartphone:

It’s true that paying a cab driver with your cell phone is very convenient, but don’t forget that a phone can break down. For security reasons, we strongly advise you to have a second method of payment. Cab payment terminals are equipped to let you pay directly with your smartphone.

Paying for a cab with an app:

It is also possible to pay with an app at some cab ranks. However, this requires installing an application and creating an account, which is ultimately slower than payment by credit card.
