Re: Are You Safe In His Taxi

I think it totally stinks to.I wonder if you ring the councils licensing office,if they would tell you what firm he is working for.Being an ex-taxi driver I know you have to give the firms name you are working on your license application form.Then we all have the choice not to use that firm.I think we should have the right to know this information for the safty of our families,and if the firm in question think its wrong and lose business then they shouldn't employ him.

Re: Are You Safe In His Taxi

True point MT i think that the company should be mentioned so that informed choice of safety can be made also im sure that the cab firm would see that it would effect their business to employ him - they forget their is plenty of women who want safe taxis!!

Re: Are You Safe In His Taxi

I'm so angry about this. I'm not sure what I should do now, I get taxis to and from work 4 times a week, and am always alone. Without knowing what taxi firm it is how are we supposed to protect ourselves. The firm should be ashamed of themselves for employing him. We need to know who he works for!!!!

Re: Are You Safe In His Taxi

True Lolly thats the point the council need to address i really cant beleive they have allowed this other than the race card fear which is held at a much more value than the safety of all passengers, i think they should explain themselves - i seriously dread to think & the point of how long has he been on the road as it is before it was reported!!!

I tend to stick with one taxi firm i know & trust as best as possible, im really concious of my safety as it is, as such attacks do happen to you or your family!!

Aren't we also coming up to local election time soon. Perhaps the names of the councillors concerned who voted for it should also be kept in the spotlight ?
