Question 13618 — road safety

Summary

Mr. Guy Bricout draws the attention of the Minister, to the Minister of State, Minister for Ecological and Inclusive Transition, responsible for transport, to the implementation of the post-parking package (FPS) and its extremely damaging organizational and economic consequences which are currently weighing on shared mobility operators. Whereas previously, rental companies had the possibility, in the event of a fine of parking, to designate the tenant responsible, from now on, they must first pay the FPS payment and then turn against the tenant in order to recover the amount. This situation is extremely detrimental to the rights and interests of shared mobility operators as well as tenant customers. In fact, current legislation does not allow these operators to transfer, in the context of their activity, the responsibility for payment of FPS rests with the actual driver of the vehicle. Any clause introducing the automatic passing on of the FPS charge to the customer would be qualified as an unfair clause under consumer law. The financial consequences are considerable and go so far as to call into question the economic sustainability of shared mobility companies. Indeed, the FPS amounts are sometimes much higher than that of the average daily profit from the short-term rental of a vehicle. It is important to emphasize that the players in shared mobility provide a response adapted to the mobility needs of users, represent an alternative to vehicle ownership and strongly contribute to the virtuous renewal of the vehicle fleet; rental fleets are made up of recent vehicles renewed on average every 6 month. The mobility orientation bill must respond to the problems of daily mobility for users, he asks that a mechanism for designating the client of the shared mobility operator be considered in the mobility orientation bill.
