Milton Keynes Citizen February 21, 2008 Minicab driver fined PRIVATE hire driver Yusifali Kerimli has paid a high price for illegally picking up passengers outside a city nightclub. The 43-year-old, of Cheriton, Furzton, denied the charges of plying for hire without a pre-booked appointment in April last year. Milton Keynes magistrates heard two women reported him after he attempted to offer a taxi service as they waited near Pink Punters at Fenny Stratford. Only a licensed Hackney Carriage can ply for trade on the street. He was found guilty, fined £800 and ordered to pay £1,170 costs after the trial on Tuesday. He will now appear before the private hire regulatory committee next month to discuss if he can continue work as a minicab driver. Afterwards Daniel Mullins, senior enforcement officer for MK Council said it would clamp down on private hire drivers who flout licensing laws by picking up passengers without pre-booking. ________________________ |
