We were reminded recently of just how important it is to have taxi insurance when a taxi driver in his early 40s lost his life after jumping into a nearby river to avoid the gardai. The driver was stopped during a routine gardai check and was found to have no taxi insurance. In Ireland if a taxi is found to be uninsured it can be seized for up to 3 months. This very sad incident could simply have been avoided if the driver had taxi insurance.

Irish taxi drivers expressed their concern against a new proposal which would remove the right to advertise on their taxi vehicles. The National Private Hire and Taxi Association organised the rally which say over 300 taxi drivers take to the streets in protest between College Green and George’s Street in mid February. Drivers also protested against the misuse of a transport phone application for mobile phones which allows the public to check and authenticate the taxi driver’s licence and registration.

As part of new regulation submitted by the Government, the National Transport Authority has set new branding rules for all small public service vehicles.The Authority proposed that each taxi should display branding that contains the individual vehicle licence number and carry the Transport for Ireland logo.
