Resort city of Cancun rounds up dozens of Uber cars

MEXICO CITY (AP) — Officials in the Mexican resort of Cancun and nearby cities have rounded up scores of Uber cars and taken them to impound lots until drivers pay fines of about $2,800 apiece.

State transportation secretary Jorge Portilla says Uber violated a state law prohibiting unlicensed transport services, and that Uber knew about the law beforehand.
