If you have an accident as a mechanic and you're off work for a year recovering, you don't lose your right to earn a living at it.
Taxi-driving is a skillset - it takes years to know it all and spout bollocks with the best of them.

Didn't take Joe years. And he makes more than any taxi driver.

You clown, I can't sell on my job, and neither should you be able to. Are you going to vet people you want to sell your licence to?

Breaking news, populists politician agree with shouty constituents.

Not much of a taxi driver if he thinks Waterford is only 13 miles from Kilkenny.

What are the chances, eh? Joe mentions attacks on a taxi driver, only to find that his caller has a story about precisely that!

Why would the licenced taxi drivers stand up for you, you fools. They'll be laughing all the way with less competition.

Breaking News: Taxi regulator gives Joe the finger

Wesser

Taxi drivers are NOT the only profession that have to Pay for their own regulation.

ButtersSuki

Joe: day won't talk to de peeple dat do pay dare wages so to speak.



You won't talk to me Joe and you blocked me from twitter too.

Taxi union lad told me once the regulator has a very expensive bog wood desk worth a small fortune. I nodded and then we went back to talking about rugby:)

Atlantic Dawn

Did the original caller get one of those "silly" letters about licences expiring?

He drops the Newstalk name frequently, I suspect he was told to do so from Noel to keep RTE on their toes when it comes to fees and also to make flirty advances to Dinny O'B to come with a big fat cheque buke and make him an offer he can't refuse a la Pat Kinny so to speak.

Atlantic Dawn

Stick a techograph in them says I, lol.

Right2Write

Are they going to rabbit on till 3 o'clock???

Dan Jaman

Has anyone here seen the god-awful state that some of the London taxis are in by the time they're actually forced off the road?
Some right bits of shoyte that were legal until the last day of hire.

somesoldiers

I work in the IFSC, our garage backs on to Sherriff Street Lower. Every day there is a queue of taxis waiting all the way around the block to get into the rank in front of Connolly. There are simply too many of them

2smiggy

Atlantic Dawn

If only there was a full list of suitable vehicles that are approved available...

Had a Meriva as a rental one year, bootspace is pretty ****, and was very uncomfortable to drive. They were doing him a favour.

Fujitsu10

Surely this guy knew the criteria before he bought the fecking thing?????? Next caller please :rolleyes:

PeterTheNinth

He should have looked up the list of vehicles first, lets be fair. He can't just buy whatever vehicle he wants to drive himself.

neris

The doors open outwards as opposed to the ever efficient gull wing taxidoors

Over .....over ........over ......poll u Ed!!

Pfft. Again, facts. WHOY should a taxi driver have to obey the rules?

ThisRegard

Loosing it after 1 year is fair enough (outside of exceptional circumstances), if you have a licence but aren't using it then that's 1 less taxi on the road.

Can imagine the uproar if they bring in tachos for taxi drivers

He's pining after Pat and wants to follow him over.

Solution, even number licence numbers work every 2nd day, odd numbers work the rest.
