Post by: john m on March 04, 2020, 09:39:27 am
So the NTA contacted the driver to see if he would accept a call from the HSE .So what do we know from this ?You are being monitored by the NTA and the NTA are making that data available to other state agencies .Also why was the driver not asked to fumigate the car ? They seem to be making it up as they go.

the taxi review said cameras on ranks I remember pointing out it was an invasion of privacy as other licenced businesses like bookies or bars are not monitored by the state .but as usual I was ignored and the usual idiots couldnt see the point ,just like the on board cameras and tech in the roofie .

They never proceeded with cameras on ranks John, just like loads of other promises they made. Like removing criminals from the industry, like cameras monitoring illegal ranking , etc

Half the cunts on here don't even know where the official stands are.What's the point in putting cameras on the ranks when so many are happy to pay 15% commission for street work.Ermy there's a good reason you get ignored...yer only two days away from drinking her own piss.No disrespect intended.

What do you be reading Where did it say anything about cameras to monitor Illegal ranks ?Obviously they have cameras on ranks they found this driver in minutes .Where did you get the Idea they would Remove Criminals from the Industry .We do not do double jeopardy Unless when sentencing the Judge said and you cannot drive a taxi the Taxi Regulator or the Gards cannot or do not have extrajudicial powers to act they can refuse you a licence but in 99.9999999999999% of appeals you will get a licence .Irish Law is not retrospective In fact the Supreme court just Ruled in the Dwyer case that the Ruling made by the Appeal court judge regarding the collecting of Data from Phones should not be retrospective and only apply to cases heard after the Ruling So removing Criminals would be Illegal unlawfull and Unconstitutional .Preventing Criminals in future is a different issue .I hope that cleared up your missunderstanding .

My understanding is/was that Alan Kelly (at that time) published his proposals to remove serious criminals from the industry, to monitor illegal ranking, etc the fact that nothing was ever done about a certain can company illegally instructing to stand for hire in hotel carparks, would bare our what I said EMPTY PROMISES BY THE NTA

The taxi act was passed by the Dail .On Cameras on Ranks it allows evidence of taxi use be introduced in a court as Monitoring Taxis is Legal under the act .Kelly then tried to introduce on Board Cameras this existing law that allowed monitoring of taxies opened the door for on board cameras .Just because it says taxis on ranks does not mean the Judge will interpret it as a Camera bolted to a pole he will interpret it as it is legal to monitor taxi use under the Act .

On illegal ranks in Hotels it was suggested you need Planning Permission but this was never challenged and as most Pubs or Hotels are private property owner consent to carry out a commercial activity on his premises would surfice .You still think taxi driving is some sort of executive Career its just below Van Driver as Delivering a box needs real Geography knowledge as a Box cannot direct the Driver

Ya see John . This is an ongoing argument you have had before. Your interpretation of the law is, that ownership of the premises supersedes the DCC rules. In other words if the hotel owner gives permission to stand for hire in his car park, you seem to think this permission supersedes DCC rules where they clearly state the only place a taxi may stand for hire is at an officially appointed taxi rank

You have Constitutional Rights over your Private Property Guarenteed by the Constitution these rights Superseed DCC By laws .So lets interpret that if you are standing at a STAND you are STANDING for hire so if I take what you said literally if you are not at an OFFICIAL TAXI RANK you are not standing at all .

Instead article 43 could commence with a statement to the effect that “the State acknowledges the right of every citizen and of persons lawfully resident within the State to a home and, accordingly, undertakes to defend and vindicate such right”.

So Big Dommos Grandkids are automatically entitled to a Gaff for free as the constitution guarentees every citizen a home .It would be Free because you have a Constitutional Right to have a home not pay rent or Mortgage .This is the Kind of Stupidity papers write .If you had a million pound Mortgage why would you pay it the Constitution says you have a right to your Home so the banks cant take it back the builders wouldnt build cos you could take the house and go to court to defend your Constitutional right GET A FUCKING GUN the IDIOTS ARE HEADING FOR POWER .

Constitutions never define who God is just a nod to a Greater Being .I often thought you swear on the Bible in Court and the Bible says God created Man then Woman so IF you were on the Jury of a Transgender Murder could you find the accused innocent just because the Bible you swore on does not recognise that such a gender exists .

John  I grew up in a tennement house in Dublin city centre. My aunt (who now owns the house) wanted to remove decrotive window metal grills some time ago. She was told in no uncertain terms by DCC, that she CANNOT remove, or  interfere with these things in any way, as there is a presivation order on the property

They have a preservation order on the premises but is she still allowed to use it, can she use it for the purpose for which it was first granted planning ie residential .Council can restrict change of use but not deny you the use for which it was originally built .A lot of shops cannot rent out the upstairs for residential use like Capel street as the original planning was for retail and not residential .

John you are forgetting that the driver picked up the person at the airport. Billions of cameras up there to find the lady, what taxi she got into and then the details from the taxi.
And it wasn’t the NTA that rang the driver, it’s was the Gardai, and they asked is it ok to pass on your number to the HSE.

Again you get the wrong end of the stick and run with it.

No no no no no, only the permit holder can go into the hikes with the pass, so if the owner wasn’t driving, he would lose his permit.
The DAA would have been contacted by the Gardai and the info would have been given over p, then the Gardai would have contacted the driver. Do you not think the Garda have all of our mobile phone numbers in a database somewhere??

You seem to forget that I had the unfortunate incident of having to deal with The DAA and a certain taxi driver who made it from the Airport to D13 and back in 19 minutes & 43 seconds and the details they can get from cameras is very good,

We are under surveillance. Cameras are everywhere – attached to buildings, in shopping malls, on public roads and street corners – and our online behaviour is covertly monitored in detail before being fed into complex algorithms. Globally, one in three people use a Facebook-owned service on a daily basis and Google, especially now through Android, is harvesting our browsing, location and travel patterns.

The apps are free but there’s a hidden price given how advertisers pay for the profiling data in order to target consumers and curate their online experience. This may seem benign – advertising is part of life – but it is becoming increasingly personal and the Cambridge Analytica scandal could be the tip of an iceberg in the process of being formed.

Inexpensive facial recognition technology is currently in its infancy and about to enter a new phase, one where anonymity will become a quaintly antique notion. Blanket surveillance, we will be told, is for the greater social good; we are being observed because we are being protected. Chinese tech companies, boasting how their software can identify people wearing face masks, have been quick to use the Covid-19 virus to help market their invasive software.

I’ll try explain.
Wife returned from work trip, stupid o’clock in the morning, got taxi from airport to house, driver sped down M1, through red lights at M1/R139 junction, flew down R139, through red lights at a Hilton. Arrived at house and seeing taxi in driveway said his printer was broken and gave written receipt and chucked the bags on the ground, including laptop bag.

So I emailed the DAA about, and got a response that The DAA don’t regulate the taxis and they are independently operated and licensed by The NTA.

I responded by saying that I was myself a taxi driver, and that I knew they used the Easy Trip tag system to monitor taxis and that I knew they could tell me if my wife had left a passport in a taxi which taxi it was fairly swiftly.

I received a phone call from someone in the taxi division in the DAA, he simply asked, date, time, which terminal, what colour bags and what colour coat/jacket/jumper she was wearing that morning, along with the colour and make/model of car we suspected it was. I furnished them with the information and they came back with 3 possible taxis it might have been but as soon as we described what the driver looked like they knew exactly which one it was.

He apparently got a warning from The DAA and I had exchanged a few words with him a while later.
 He was none best pleased that I worked out who he was but thanks to Rats Database I was able to narrow the driver down myself  lol
