Taxi Driver Online

An attempt was made. But failed through inexperience.

A bit like a train being cancelled because of the wrong kind of snow on the line.

That should read,

"No one would agree with jimmy boy (except gary)"

They must be all inexperienced idiots!

You really should learn to understand what it is your reading and what it is intended for.... the best practice guidelines you're quoting are in fact warning councils about their licensing procedures... in other words telling them not to be over-zealous..ie If they are refusing a driver a licence because he has three points... or he must have a blue vehicle, the issue regarding a council being able to restrict is dealt with separately and quite clearly. your arguments would be laughed out of a court...But what's new there..

Section 8 stated:

Licensing requirements which are unduly stringent will tend unreasonably to restrict the supply of taxi and PHC services, by putting up the cost of operation or otherwise restricting entry to the trade.


Oh and obviously they go totally against tighter controls which you say should be in place...

Aye right Mr. T and of course your definition comes with artificial plate values. Women's safety doesn't even enter into your thinking Time for you to join CC, I think

Artificial plate values divide the trade in Edinburgh, and give away control to the council. You don't have any plate values, but yet you still can't organise yourself into a cohesive group to represent your own interests.

Through here the problem is self-interest and greed. What's your excuse?

It shows how much you know.... the same legislation applies to the Derestricted areas... and you have to ask yourself why it was put in... maybe because they have cocked up and tried to regain the balance like placing too many restrictions on drivers and vehicles.....

So, councils were wrned.

Yet Edinburgh is trying to defend this in court?

Forgive me if i'm wrong but does this mean councils can maintain restriction by putting up the cost of operation to control the supply of Taxi's within a restricted or de-restricted area and without limit of how much?

Dougie its the best practice guidance
its giving advice to councils that they shouldn't restrict entry to the trade by extortionate license fee's or any other method for that matter.

only you could read it the other way round.

are you going to show me where in the cgsa it allows for higher fee's to be charged if you have more than one license.

or are you going to admit its just a pipe dream of yours

in fact on reading it again
it isnt even talking about licence fee's its talking about anything unreasonable IE must have gold plated wheel trims.

Dougie, is barking and reality plays no part in his little world. It's actually quite worrying to think, that this failed medical experiment has fathered children. Surely there must be something in the CGSA, stopping the likes of Dougie, from breeding.
