Uber agrees to pay $3.8 million Denmark fine over taxi law

Uber has agreed to pay a 25 million Danish crowns (3 million pounds) fine in Denmark, settling claims of breaching local taxi law out of court, Danish police said on Friday.

After launching its service in Denmark in 2014, Uber was criticised by taxi driver unions, companies and politicians who said the company posed unfair competition by not meeting legal standards required for established taxi firms.

That's the Uber way.

Act illegally to build up a business in the safe knowledge it takes years to get to the highest courts.

Then pay a fine which is akin to pennies for a multi-billion dollar company.
