Another TfL Roundel Of Death Crashes, We Ask Are TfL Not Fit To Be Regulator.


Fire crews and the ambulance services attended the scene of the accident, which happened just before 9am Friday morning, January 10.

The accident happened between junctions 23 and 24 on the clockwise carriageway. Two lanes had to be closed because of the accident.

The Jaws Of Life, Used On The Roundel Of Death...Again. 
Herts Fire and Rescue Service tweeted: "Fire Control received a call to an RTC involving 2 vehicles on the M25 between J23 and J24. Upon arrival, casualty extrication was carried out using two sets of cutting equipment.

    

This crash comes on the back of renewed calls form the Taxi trade, for TfL to release the statistics on Uber’s safety record. 

TfL promise to release deaths, rapes, sexual assaults and accident statistics year after year but have so far, fail to come up with the goods. 

It’s alleged they don’t want to put people off using Private Hire, and damage their most profitable revenue stream. 

TfL have long been accepting drivers from countries with different driving standards without any testing to see if they are safe. But worst of all TfL take applicants from countries that can’t guarantee the driver has no serious criminal record. TfL day this situation is allowed because it’s impossible to police. If that’s true, then it shouldn’t be allowed. 

If someone turns up at TfL and applies for a private hire licence, but can’t show a record of non criminal activity.... then they should be told to jog on. Public safety must come before a licence fee.  

TfL’s regulations are regularly bypassed on many occasions bringing their suitability to be a regulator into question. 

TfL have recently swept most of what’s been going on under the table.... refusing to answer questions on what’s actually been occurring, over the last 6-7 years in regards to the UberRape app.

If you believe that TfL should be relieved of Taxi and Private Hire responsibility, and that we should return to being regulated by the Met.... then please sign the petition below...just click on the link. 


BTW, you don’t have to be a Taxi driver to sign this petition, just worried about public safety
