During the police interview, they said 'you do realise this situation is a whole lot more serious as your profession is a taxi driver', I can except that to a degree but how far is the law willing to go?

We are in a position of trust, in the same way a carer would be treated if they stole money from an old dear. In legal terms we are an aggravating factor.

But it does work both ways, if a scumbag assaults one of us whilst working that is also an aggravating factor once convicted.

I just think it's wrong that a bad quality photograph of someone with his hands in his lap can be so damaging, the system is at fault.

I'm not sure anyone in the criminal justice system, or that for matter outside of it, thinks the system is perfect.

Since the days of Adam and Eve guilty folks have got away with it, and innocent folks haven't. :sad: :sad:

However in your case the innocent has been proved innocent by a jury.

I hope I can get back to work, TFL wrote to me in september a month after the verdict, saying 'there is reason to believe you'er an unfit and improper person e.t.c' an automated type of letter. I have got fed up with waiting so i've gathered the documents together CRB (no convictions), e.t.c and sent them off.

I wish you well.

There was one case I found on the internet where a guys di@k was mistaken for broomstick handle (it's the way round but you get me), I guess that would be in my league!


I can sort of half Imagine that if the Hairy end of the Broomstick was at the bottom by someones lap then it might just look like you had rear ended a Witch on her travels... :roll:
