And it won't be long before tachographs have auto reporting to the traffic commissioners. This is the last thing you would ever want in a taxi/pivate hire car. It would seriously disrupt your earnings potential and shift patterns.

The only way school two doesn't work is when currently your drivers are working non stop, but I doubt there is a cab firm in the world where that applies.

Second is you have 100 drivers working 70 hours picking up your punters.

If those drivers could only work 58 hours you would still have the same amount of drivers and the same amount of punters, just that those drivers would be a lot busier in those hours they worked.

erm... thats assuming the punters are prepared to wait longer for thier pickup and not ring another form, then they dont come back and the work dies off for the 100 drivers

Why would they wait?

When you next clear you meter, if you have one, look at the length of time you were logged on, and compare that with the length of time you were engaged.

Less cars working at any one time means less time doing nothing, not more time for punters waiting.

to the extreme then....1 car 100 jobs waiting..........how many no shows?

That assume everyone in the trade, except one, is as thick as pigs sh**.

If it was that busy then drivers would work those hours, rather than the hours when they sit around scratching their bums.

when uber goes down and 40,000 PH cars rejoin bases wait for the screams....

Why?

Are you saying that those punters currently using Uber will walk instead?

well they only want uber right now

No they don't only want Uber, they have chosen to only use Uber.

Should they no longer have an option to use Uber they will use any firm or a cab from the street.

I might be driving a milk tanker soon, apparently it doesn't come under eu driving hours. It is GB domestic hours and I would only be required to have one day off a fortnight (that's my understanding anyway) so I will be able to carry on cabbying in my spare time... Result!!!
