Unnamed taxi driver stripped of license for convictions


A CABBIE has been stripped of his taxi licence – because he has too many criminal convictions.

The Hackney Carriage and private hire driver was hauled before Stoke-on-Trent City Council for a review of his licence. Now councillors have revoked the taxi licence of the un-named driver. Discussions of the convictions were held in private.

But a council report states: “The applicant had a pattern of motoring and other convictions over a long period of time. Despite receiving a strict warning as to his future conduct when the licence was granted, the applicant has continued to acquire serious convictions.”

Another driver has had his Hackney Carriage and private hire licence suspended because of an unspecified motoring conviction.

He has been told to pass the £78 Driving Standards Agency test for cabbies before he can try to get his licence back.

The council report states: “Due to the motoring conviction, which raised concerns for public safety, the panel felt the applicant needed to refresh their driving skills.”

Another driver has had his licence suspended until he passes a local knowledge test.

You have to wonder why some drivers just don't take the hint. ](*,)
