Swedish government wants that all taxis in Sweden to have a meter

That includes "car sharing" or "car pooling" services, such as the recently closed Uber Pop service, or the recently launched Heetch, both in Stockholm.

The government investigator Amy Rader Olsson said that in the future all taxis in Sweden must have a meter and she left open the possibility of a new category of taxi that can use another way of measuring payment using technology or other systems available. The investigation proposed regulating car-sharing and said that drivers should establish themselves as a taxi company.
