Penalty points scheme and code of conduct proposal for taxi drivers Taxi drivers who commit minor offences could receive penalty points under a new proposal. Crawley Borough Council wants to introduce a penalty points scheme and a code of good conduct to help secure compliance with licensing requirements as well as responsible and ethical behaviour from hackney carriage and private hire licence holders. The scheme would give points to taxi drivers who commit minor offences or acts of non-compliance instead of taking more formal action. The council wants to identify drivers who persistently commit minor offences or fail to comply with requirements placed upon them as licence holders. A licence holder that reaches a certain number of points would then be referred to the council which would consider whether to suspend or revoke the licence. The penalty points scheme is not intended to be used to deal with more serious offences or acts of non-compliance and in deciding what action to take, each case will continue to be considered on its own individual merits. Councillor Mike Pickett, chair of the council’s Licensing Committee, said: “We want to find out what the public and taxi drivers think about these proposals before making a final decision. “I’d urge everyone to give us their views so we can ensure that any final policy works for both taxi users and taxi drivers.” A short survey along with the draft penalty points scheme and code of good conduct can be viewed and completed at www.crawley.gov.uk/consultation Read more: http://www.crawleyobserver.co.uk/news/p ... z4EDH5XzMw |

Good luck with that Crawley. Apart from the top quality PH at Gatwick Airport the trade is a cesspit. In my view. |

Lets face facts - the points systems have little to do with justice or anything like that - they're about saving money convening committee hearings.......accept the points and accept the fact that when you accumulate enough points for a hearing, you will be suspended or there to get your license revoked.....whether or not this is legal is open to interpretation. |

I tell everyone here to appeal any points awarded on the grounds that they will eventually realise that it is costing them a huge amount of money and time. |
