Taxi Leaks: How much longer is public safety going to be compromised by TfL ?

This is the result of untrained drivers, falling asleep at the wheel, working too many hours taking their eyes off the road to follow a sat-nav.

The sight of Uber's Prius' on their side, on their roof, down stair cases, up a lamppost, smashing into other vehicles...has become far too common in the capital.

The added to this, you have the escalating numbe of serious sexual assaults (including rapes) by Uber drivers on their passengers.

Who would want to put the their loved ones in a car under these circumstances to save a couple of pounds.

Is it really worth the risk ???

To find out the true cost of a cheap ride home...ask a rape victim, or a passenger who has life changing injuries due to their Uber driver being over tired!!!

Passenger data....hacked

Passenger accounts....hacked

Greyball

Working without insurance

Failing to repor serious crimes

What more do TfL want????

After 15 months Uber had made little to no improvements yet TfL gave them another two months.

In reality, any other PH operator would have had their licence revoked had they also been convicted of two contraventions if the 1998 PHV act. But Uber appear to be made of Teflon when it comes to TfL.

Do you think the regulator or Uber actually care ?

Uber said their drivers can only work 12 hours, but that’s not strictly true....they wait in between jobs for (let’s say) 4 hours, which means they have been working a total of 16 hours. Not forgetting the to and from work depending where he/she lives, some drivers live way outside London, some as far as Manchester.
