London Transport: We are told by a major app that Autonomous Vehicles will start to operate in a few months. What are the regulations? Is there a cap on the number of vehicles in London? What protection is there for existing Taxi and Private Hire drivers? @TfLTPH @GMB_Pro_Drivers

Private Hire London: There’s nothing worse than being registered with amateurs that put your license at risk..never done a trip with them, apparently I was doing “harmful activity “ but the email says that they can’t read the logbook file, 8wks later.. the file used on all ops.

Private Hire London: Is there a shortage of drivers or high demand for it to be necessary to have 560 new PH driver licenses in London? - Earnings and trip requests are at the lowest level ever. Protection of existing drivers is a must.

⁦@UberUK⁩ , Can you clarify this for me.. Uber takes 29%, there’s a 20% VAT, how is the driver earning 70% gross (before expenses)?

Private Hire London: Addison Lee pays drivers £2.50 for each trip in the CC zone. It would be appreciated if @UberUK could take the lead and added £5 on each cc trip. Why are drivers paying to work? It’s the passenger that wants to take a vehicle into cc.
