Cabbie crackdown: Drivers rejecting passengers to face immediate suspension


In a new crackdown on cabbies this week, drivers found rejecting passengers will be immediately suspended while those repeatedly breaking the law will be fired.

Department of Land Transport (DLT) director Sanit Promwong vowed to get rid of badly-behaved drivers and announced the crackdown in Ratchaprasong area, where the most problems with taxi drivers have been reported.

In the past eight months, Ratchaprasong authorities caught 205 taxi drivers rejecting passengers, 158 who were not using their meter, and 325 who were not carrying their license.
