My point re the big gob wasn't necessarily aimed at you. :-s

As for the respect thing, well if something deserves it, then I will only be too please to be the first one to show it. :wink:

As normal monkeys will sign anything, this petition lends more weight to the argument against change, I can see it now, you want change, you say everyone wants change, how many thousands and thousands of drivers are there, it doesn't look like too many are concerned to me...... :lol: :lol:


I suppose there are two types of monkeys those that want change and those that think like you.

JD

You're quite correct, I never start something that I cannot finish

I would love to see -

The right number of HC for the area they are licensed in currently some areas have to few BUT most have to many

Proper and recognised training to replace knowledge tests and possibly involve DSA tests

National Vehicle Standards for WAVs not to include back street conversions but to include professional converters

Mandatory Calender controlled meters in all HC and PH vehicles programmed ONLY with council approved rates

National Taxi & PH Council made up of the representative groups as well as other interested parties possibly including websites, to constantly review licensing legislation with government, but leaving responsibility with the local authorities

National Advertising to promote the use of HC and PH vehicles clearly identifying the difference between the way they are legally hired

Unity within our industry we have to many people involved not to have a real voice within the transport sector ........... after all we all put up with the same $hit

There are probably more, but I have a job on in 15 mins and wor lass has just put a cuppa beside me.

B. Lucky :D


You've put a lot of good ideas up in this post, most I agree with some I don't, but it's a cracking good post! :D

At the time of writing this there have been 310 views of this petition posting on this forum.

But only 18 people have actually signed the petition.

Are we all satisfied with our current legislation?

They seek him here, they seek him there, they seek John Deas, everywhere!

It would appear you are infatuated with this John Deas character Jimbo, I'll get him to give you a ring you so you can get better acquainted.
