Yes , it is restricted to these vehicles. In the ground and in the traffic signs you can read VTC (Uber, Cabify). I said I don't want discussion about what is a VTC really and if should they exist. I only want to know how to map it, because in the Barcelona's harbour there are spots specifically ta
