A private hire company was recently closed down in Leeds for allowing drivers to illegally ply for hire, drivers were given 7 days to find another company to work for or their licences would be revoked.

It would appear the council have listened to what we have been saying for years, target the operators into controlling their drivers or face loosing their licence.

If they continue closing these companies down eventually the guilty drivers will be unable to find anywhere to work

Not 100% sure about the full details, the companies phone numbers were transfered to another private hire company which isn't far off what you are asking.
