It has been three days without taxis in the Dianjiang County, and we citizens are having a lot of trouble getting around. I heard that the taxi drivers were on strike, and now all the taxis are parked at the exit of the expressway. On November 3rd, taxi drivers in the main urban areas of Chongqing went on strike. Not a single taxi could be found on the streets of Chongqing. Many citizens who wanted to take taxis complained.

In the Xinan South Road area of Yubei District in Chongqing, many passengers were seen waiting for taxis. While waiting for taxis, they complained: Why aren't there any taxis today? Some said they were late for work, others said they missed their trains and flights. Later, after hearing about the taxi strike, they rushed to take buses.
