I don't suppose Dundee has any real quality controls, to prevent low quality individuals entering the trade? #-o

A stringent topographical knowledge test coupled with an advanced driving test and anything else you might want to add... :-|

You could make it as difficult and as costly as you like. At the end of the day, a taxi doesn't drive itself. You only need to control the quality of individual gaining entry into your trade to restrict taxi numbers.

The value should be in the brief and not the plate.

Clearly the bewildered herd are still bewildered.

The difference is that those hard pressed cabbies in Dundee have the option to leave the trade, go do something else and come back in when things pick up.

In restricted Edinburgh you sell up and you then have difficulty getting back in. Restriction kills market forces, the two are incompatible.

There is no flexibility here. Government would prefer an Edinburgh carbniggr to leave the trade completely rather than afford him access to the tool of his trade so he can work when the market needs him to.

Peak time queues at cab ranks when drivers aren't allowed to tool up to meet it? How does that serve customer needs?

We r here to serve the customers needs but we also need to make a living, there is no such thing as an empty rank up here even at peak times, the customers r not benefiting from this as cars r driving like race car drivers so they can join the never ending que as fast as possible, leave the trade u say? Join the dole?
