Illegal school taxi

A WORKINGTON couple have been prosecuted for operating an unlicensed
taxi for school runs.


Dorothy Stabler, 53, of Walker Road, Salterbeck, Workington, took
schoolchildren from addresses in Workington and Seaton to Stainburn and
Seaton schools.

The Skoda Octavia used, on January 18 and 21, was not licensed for use
as a hackney carriage.

Mrs Stabler pleaded guilty to two offences of driving a vehicle as a
hackney carriage without a licence when she appeared at West Allerdale
Magistrates Court in Workington this week.

She was prosecuted by Allerdale council as was her husband Robert
Stabler, 45, who owned the car.

Mr Stabler, of the same address, pleaded guilty to allowing Mrs Stabler to
drive the vehicle as a hackney carriage without a licence.

He admitted the offences when interviewed by council officers on January 24.

Both Mr and Mrs Stabler were absent from court.

She was fined £150 and Mr Stabler, £250. Both were ordered to pay £65
court costs.

Did they do a deal regarding "driving without insurance"? We'll never know.
