So variable pricing is regulated out of market is what you're saying.



What do you mean by variable pricing. Haggling? Having the costs vary by time is fine as long as it's detailed on the pricing sticker.

Edit: here are the details http://www.transportstyrelsen.se/Vag/Yrkestrafik/Taxi/Prisin...

Uber could use this standard exclusion: "Tariffs by written agreement exclusively for a particular customer or passenger category do not have to be reported in the price data."

edit2: I'm reading the law now. There are massive loopholes all over this thing. Uber could easily implement their standard business model within this framework if they'd just comply with a few things http://www.transportstyrelsen.se/Global/Regler/TSFS_svenska/...
