How to defeat the scourge of share taxis?

No.1804845 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
Countless developing countries suffer from sub-par transportation and urbanism due to these things.
They are usually individually owned and server fixed routes between two points without a fixed schedule and passengers cand get on and off at any point on the route and pay a fixed rate.
Their operation inherently causes road chaos and congestion, in addition to unbearable pollution due to the state of disrepair most vehicles are in.
Due to a lack of regulation and a weak and corrupt government, share taxi syndicates and unions block any attempt at improving public transit and especially at improving urban planning.
As a consequence of this, many places will never enjoy the benefits of trams, metros, light rail, busses, and most importantly clean air and safe streets.
How can one defeat them?
