Sinead Ryan: Time to call a taxi for Darragh O'Brien if he won't give the people what they want, and that's Uber
"I was one of the four in 10 people regularly freezing their ass off in town trying in vain to hail a taxi last December. I'm also with the 57pc of those recently surveyed by the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (CCPC) who say there are simply not enough taxis in their area."
A significant portion of the population struggles to find available taxis, particularly during peak demand periods like winter months. Recent surveys by the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission reveal that 57% of respondents believe their areas lack sufficient taxis to meet demand. The Transport Minister's decision to maintain current regulations prevents potential solutions that could expand taxi availability and improve passenger access to transportation services. This regulatory stance limits consumer choice and fails to address documented shortages in taxi supply across various regions.
