Taxi drivers in Paris are up in arms over the Uber taxi app \u2013 which allows users to book cheaper journeys from unlicensed drivers.<\/p>\n
Morgan Hell sent a series of tweets describing her ordeal. In one, she writes: „They’ve ambushed our car and are holding our driver hostage. They’re beating the cars with metal bats. This is France? I’m safer in Baghdad.”<\/p>\n
Addressing the French president, she adds: „Francois Hollande, where are the fucking police? Is it legal for your people to attack visitors? Get your ass to the airport. WTF.”<\/p>\n
Love reports she was rescued by passing men on motorcycles who took her away from the scene.<\/p>\n
