Four taxi drivers were arrested at Lavrio port, south of Athens, for allegedly overcharging passengers, particularly tourists. The arrests occurred on July 6, 2026, during targeted police operations aimed at curbing illegal fare practices. Reports indicate that the drivers charged excessive amounts for rides, with some fares reaching up to €200 for distances where the legal fare was significantly lower.
The arrested individuals, aged between 32 and 60, are accused of collecting far higher sums than what was legally permitted for various routes, including trips from Lavrio to the Acropolis as well as shorter local journeys. Legal actions have been initiated against the drivers, and administrative fines have been imposed by the authorities. The Greek police emphasized that these enforcement actions are part of ongoing efforts to enhance compliance and protect consumers in the transportation sector.
