If the company is assigning the numbers, then okay. But if it becomes part of the DLT or the RTP, then it will just wind up being the same corruption forced upon the motorcycle taxis. I suspect this is the ultimate goal of this proposal. Edited November 11, 2021 by timendres 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackdd Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 If there would just be something like... let's say a plate, attached to vehicles, which would allow to identify the owner, then those vests weren't necessary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proper training before allowing people to drive/ride and making police do their job sounds way too difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not, works well with the motorcycle taxi lads, no? Why on earth does a bloke or blokess delivering noodles for Food Panda need a numbered jacket? Because the proles have found a new way of scraping a living. We must control them, so we can collect the appropriate "informal fiscal contributions"!
