   So they destroy their own vehicles that they depend on for their   
   livelihood.

   PARIS — French taxi drivers smashed up livery cars, set tires   
   ablaze and blocked traffic across the country on Thursday in a   
   nationwide strike aimed at Uber after weeks of rising, sometimes   
   violent tensions over the American ride-hailing company.   
      
   Travelers going to and from the airport walked alongside   
   highways with their bags or got caught in ambushes, like singer   
   Courtney Love, who was rescued by two men on a motorcycle.   
      
   “They’ve ambushed our car and are holding our driver hostage,”   
   Love tweeted. “They’re beating the cars with metal bats. this is   
   France?? I’m safer in Baghdad.”   
      
   It wasn’t immediately clear what type of car Love was riding in.   
      
   Taxi drivers are angry, saying Uber’s lowest cost service is   
   taking their livelihood away.   
      
   Despite repeated rulings against the low-cost UberPop service,   
   its drivers continue to ply French roads and the ride-hailing   
   company is actively recruiting drivers and passengers alike.   
   Uber claims to have a total of 400,000 customers a month in   
   France.
