From Saturday, the drivers have embarked on a government-initiated project that will allow commuters to go online and rate them on their driving, whether they follow the rules of the road and whether they keep to the taxi capacity allowed.

Taxi drivers and operators who signed up for the project have had to have their vehicles and documents verified. They then underwent a training programme and had their vehicles fitted with trackers and the department’s branding to alert community members that they were taking part in the initiative.

“Operators will then be monitored by the department and rewarded for good performance. The better the performance, the higher the reward,” the department said. The department of transport, which said it had the backing of Santaco’s provincial branch and the eight provincial taxi associations, said it was hoping to encourage even more drivers to sign up.

Brilliant initiative. Taxis play a vital role in getting our countries working class to their jobs. They must just follow the same rules as the rest of the road users and everything will be better, for them, their passengers and the rest of us who share the road with them.

Good initiative
