Basically London invested a lot into the concept of safe cabs after a series of assaults on women occurred. You couldn't operate a taxi without vetting, and if you were caught operating an illegal taxi the penalties were stiff. Uber blew that out of the water, as background checks for uber drivers wasn't happening. London pushed back, and here we are.
Sounds like common sense, so these sexual assaults were by uber drivers?

U sound like u have a personal grudge. It's a great option to funky ass habibibi cab fukks and their former monopoly.

Nothing personal about it. Read about the company and its practices.

When there were protests against Uber in Paris usual anglos went on the usual french-bashing bs of "socialism", "free capitalism" and whatnot. Couple years later, Uber still in Paris and banned in Angloland :francis:

London cab drivers have to take this wildly extensive test called the Knowledge of London before becoming a cab driver.

They have to memorize every single street, alleyway, point of interest in the entire city. And they're tested on specific routes, like the examiner will ask them how to get from Mayfair to Kensington (not 100% if these are both london neighborhoods but run with it) going through exactly 6 stop lights:wow:

you're such a try hard



:scust:
Please explain how knowing every street is better for consumers than just following the gps :stopitslime:



That test is just a waste of time for drivers, and just another way to milk money out of people. This isnt the 1950s.
