A new women-only transport service launching in Paris aims to tackle the problem of sexual harassment and assault in taxi cabs. For many women taking a taxi isn't always the stress free option for getting from A to B that it should be, and Paris is no exception. Women drive promises transport without "indiscreet looks, delicate questions, or ambiguous proposals". "When we refused to respond to his advances, he left us at the side of the road," Boubchir told the daily. For now, Women drive has only launched in Paris, but Boubchir hopes to take the company nationwide in the future.
