We've been beaten, abused and robbed for years but now the NTA thinks it should run ads everywhere except in taxis. Wonder why lol
IMHO, a golden missed opportunity for more plastic stickers on our taxis!
NTA launches campaign to encourage respect for taxi drivers (https://www.breakingnews.ie/ireland/nta-launches-campaign-to-encourage-respect-for-taxi-drivers-923604.html)
The National Transport Authority has launched a ‘Taxi Driver Respect’ campaign to encourage customers to show respect for taxi drivers.
The six-week national advertising campaign will run across digital and social media platforms, and on bus shelters, on-board public transport and on bus vehicles exteriors.
The idea behind the campaign is to make clear that drivers have a right to expect a working environment that is free of abuse and aggression.
It will also try to encourage the creation of a positive working environment for drivers.
Anne Graham, CEO of the NTA said: “The new awareness campaign highlights the fact that taxi drivers are not simply people who provide a vital service to the public.
"They are also our neighbours, our friends, our family, and members of our communities, and as such deserve respect.
“Drivers have a right to expect a working environment that is free of abuse and aggression.
We hope that through the rollout of this awareness campaign customers will realise that taxi drivers are not anonymous but are real people with loved ones. They provide a high-quality service day in and day out in cities and towns throughout Ireland.
“I would urge all taxi customers to be aware and respect their taxi driver as they undertake their journey in the day or at night.”
Are the first two wearing Lynk shirts? And 3 white taxis. Tut Tut!

That's embarrassing.
-
the black fella getting a slap in donnycarney was a great opportunity missed to introduce safety screens.
no more loud mouthy cunts in your ear with rotten breath. no more cunts elbowing and touching you.
when I started driving a taxi I had one but i took it out after a couple of weeks.
"why do you have that in your car."
"are you nervous or something."
"you should'nt be driving a taxi if you're scared."
"my uncle had one of them and he ended up getting attacked six or seven times I think." etc. etc. etc.
if we all had them then the dopes and thicks would acclimatise to them.
-
I reckon they won't bring in the screens because some cars are too small.I was in one of them Honda insight taxis last night and they're very small in the back.

Even Lynk drivers are taxi drivers.

Subliminal message may be that only Lynk drivers deserve respect?

Makes sense when there are no Dublin saloon taxis according to the regulator (below is a screenshot of their stats page, 13 May 2019 (https://www.nationaltransport.ie/taxi/publications-and-regulations/statistics-and-legislation/vehicle-licences-county-and-category-31st-january-2019/)).

Poor Eoghan in Fair City has only started back and he's already had a runner....and now they're hassling him...two scrotes he shouldn't have picked up...he's a hungry fuk!!

I heard the radio news in the cab telling us of this upcoming event, I laughed out loud and my customer inquired as to why I was laughing ? So I told him; "Just last Saturday night I was 'Egged' (3 direct hits to the cab) and later that night I had Two lads 'Bunk' me on a Fifty-Five Euro fare, do ya really think these scrotes are gonna take any notice of a few Ads ?".

Fair Dinkum indeed to the NTA and nice of them to think of us, but in reality IT AIN'T EVER GONNA HAPPEN !
