FREENOW for Drivers
Driver recognition awards 2025
Last week in our Dublin office, we celebrated the people who make those journeys possible: our taxi driver community.

We’ve recognised outstanding drivers across three categories, highlighting those who provide more than just a lift – they provide a helping hand to the city.


Driver of the year
Celebrating those who lead the way in performance and receive glowing praise from passengers, trip after trip.
- Jamal Masoudi
- Amar Sajjad
- George Njuguna
- Sylwester Wojcik
- Vinod Lekhwar

Legacy driver
Honouring the drivers who have been part of the Freenow story for the longest time. Their experience is the infrastructure of our community.
-  Ariyo Ojuade
- Vikas Lekhwar

The ultimate mark of respect. These winners were chosen by their fellow drivers for their support, leadership, and community spirit.

Congratulations, all. I guess 25% is a small price to pay for such prestigious recognition.

I suppose they can't go home now and say they walked away from the industry over 5% extra commission.Thr sooner the commission goes to 50% the quicker we will all delete the apps.

[Rat Catcher]

Maybe. At least the co-op lads are trying to give us an alternative. The fact that they've managed to raise a six figure launch budget is quite encouraging and something they ought to be proud of and we ought to be grateful for.

[mercenary for hire]

That's good going,hope it works out.

Almost enough men there for a good GAA cricket* team...

* the extra two could make the tea and cucumber sandwiches?

India are in the world cup semi-final tomorrow 13:30 Irish time... Might be a bit of work for the white men on Hola.

FFS when you see the number of jobs Ken was covering for them and he didnt even appear among the runners and riders .Them Foreign lads must never be out of the Vehicle .I wonder is it them the Reps were complaining about working unsafe hours .Getting us all tarred with the same brush as dangerous drivers .

[Rat Catcher]

There does be four of them working one car, all doing 19 hour shifts. A punter was telling me he went to put his suitcase in the boot of one of them EVs and there was two immigrant lads pedalling away on a generator each, charging the batteries for their shifts.
