Taxis face a crackdown A crackdown has been launched on rogue taxis operating without a license. South Ribble Council has taken the action following concern unlicensed taxis from outside the borough were coming into the area touting for trade. A joint undercover operation, involving staff from the council, police and special constables, was launched last Friday. The late-night operation covered five separate locations across the borough and resulted in one Preston taxi driver being caught trading illegally. The driver’s details were passed to Preston Council, with a view to a prosecution. Taxis trading without a licence can face enforcement action, including court fines of up to £3,500 per offence, and fines of up to £5,000 for driving uninsured. http://www.lep.co.uk/news/local/taxis-f ... -1-5503668 story from earlier in the week; viewtopic.php?f=2&t=21555 |
