Taxi Drivers and the new fare structure

Benny1 said:
Just had a read its against the law to refuse to pay a hackney or taxi fare.
Also you must have the money on you and you are expected to have the right amount like the bus and luas.
Taki drivers dont have to have change and they can call to the cops with you if you dont pay.
This would look bad for you should you ever want to go to the states.

Also the stickers were given to the taxi drivers by the regulator lol so we cant blame them can we?

One of the first things on that site is

"Remember Taxi Drivers Ger Deering is not here to help you. He is here to represent the public."

Kind of says it all really doesn't it.

when you get on the bus or Luas you know exactly how much its going to cost you or you can find out easliy before hand!!!

With Taxi's you havnt a clue how much its going to cost do you??
 
the stickers are only in irish on the outside of the rear windows,,the inside shows the fare information and customer rights and the taxi license number, the number of the taxi regulator complaints dept is also there,

no excuse for anyone not knowing their rights or not making a complaint,,,if the taxi doesn't have these stickers displayed DONT GET IN.
