The LCDC Question, Submitted By David Kurten Of UKIP ...And The Mayor's Answer. Part 2.

WTF is Khan talking about when he answered David Kurtan at Mayors Question Time "designed to ensure London remains the world leader in regulating taxi and private hire service"

Why has no one challenging Khans statement?

Who told him the regulators were the best in the world?

London's Private Hire Trade (since the implementation of a Uber) has seen the statistics on PH driver rape and sexual assault go through the roof!

TfL have allowed an illegal operation to carry on in London for the last 6 years, while consciously discriminating against Licensed Taxi Drivers struggling to earn a living.

TfL have allowed an operation to continue knowing drivers had fake medicals, plus an alarming 13,000 drivers with fake criminal record DBS certificates.....how can Khan make his statement when he knows TfL have allowed this???

Hotels.com held a survey of the public around the world and it was the London Taxi trade voted the best in the world for eight years straight.....not the regulators who would feature somewhere close to the bottom.  

What Khan should have said:

London has the best and most stringently regulated taxi service in the world, but with a virtually unregulated and unsafe private hire trade allowed by TfL who obviously don't care about public safety.

TfL have purposely blurred the lines between Taxis and Private hire to dilute the complaints about rape, serious sexual assault, fraud, hacking and poor standard of driving. 

It is TfLs intention of dragging down the best Taxi service in the world and introduce a one tier system that they can milk the life out of to fill the void in their £1bn budget deficit.

New council regulations say all Hackney Carriage and Private Hire vehicles must have CCTV systems fitted

via taxi-point https://ift.tt/2GVn6Bx

New regulations by Craven District Council are being introduced to make sure all hackney carriage and private hire drivers fit CCTV cameras in their vehicles to improve working practices. The new regulations are set out to improve safety for both drivers and their passengers. In car CCTV systems are not cheap, prices range on average between £300-£400, so drivers have been given until 2020 to get them fitted, a report in the Telegraph and Argus confirmed. Which licensing authority do you work under? Do you currently have a CCTV system or dashcam system installed in your vehicle? Do you think it should become compulsory for all taxi and private hire drivers to have such systems fitted in their vehicles to improve standards and improve safety?

London Uber driver suspended after being filmed watching TV whilst driving

via taxi-point https://ift.tt/2xk7QP7

A driver working for controversial ride-hailing app Uber was caught on film watching football on his iPad while navigating the busy streets of London. His passenger, a 27 year old man was shocked to see his driver gazing at the action on his iPad as they headed to London's ExCel centre. The driver was reported to the police and to Uber themselves who have suspended him while investigations are ongoing. According to a report in the Daily Mail, the driver assured his passenger that it was perfectly safe for him to watch while driving and that there was nothing to worry about. The passenger, a Mr MacLeod, hit social media to express his concerns with a tweet reading:

Uber have always said that it's their policy to prevent private hire drivers from using their app while they investigate serious incidents. Uber are currently operating in London although TfL denied them a new licence. Transport for London granted them the right to continue operations while an appeal is ongoing. The appeal is due to start in June.

The LCDC Question, Submitted To David Kurten Of UKIP At The GLA ...And The Mayor's Answer.

Meeting: Mayor's Question Time

Date: Thursday, 17 May 2018

Reference: Question 2018/1265 

Main question.......David Kurten

TfL allowed Uber to operate in the on-demand market without changing the legislation, holding a consultation or informing the Taxi Industry. Taxis and Private Hire (PH Vehicles) now operate in the same market. Taxis (stringently regulated) have to compete with PH who benefit from light touch regulation. TfL decide what vehicle Taxis drivers drive and set their fares, leaving drivers with no control or choice with regards to costs. PH Operators on the other hand have the flexibility to bring down fares and PH drivers have multiple choices of vehicles to keep their outgoings to a minimum. How do you expect the taxi trade to survive in London with such disparity created by TfL?

Answer..........The Mayor

Transport for London (TfL) regulates according to standards that are provided for in primary legislation and regulations designed to ensure public safety.  It also regularly consults on changes to taxi fares and tariffs.

As you will be aware my Taxi and Private Hire Action Plan contains a number of measures to maintain a vibrant two tier market in London that gives space for all service providers to flourish. This includes measures designed to improve safety in the private hire industry and to support our world renowned taxis.

TfL recently published a new policy statement setting out how private hire and ride-sharing services will operate in London in the future. The policy has been written in response to changes in the private hire industry and the many new services being offered. It has been designed to ensure London remains the world leader in regulating taxi and private hire services while maintaining public safety.
