The Saint-Martin taxi association organized last Saturday at the CCISM. The 200 taxis are among the craftsmen most weakened by the passage of Irma on the island. Many have not yet received their insurance, and some will not because their vehicle was third party insured if not recent enough.
A catastrophic situation that Christian Vautenin, a resident of Vaucluse, now retired, and former trainer of taxi drivers, has seen. He launched a call for donations in mainland France. "Raising funds for you is not easy," he said. He came on Saturday with a “small sum” (€ 4), ensuring that this is only the start. Those who were reluctant to donate made up their minds, but the money was not paid in time for this time.

The rest of the donations, which he hopes will be more substantial, will be distributed to others in a second step.
