A Dublin taxi driver has urged the Government to "sit down with taxi drivers" to hammer out their concerns over the increase in commissions amid a taxi shortage.
The taxi situation in the capital was described as a "shambles" after many people were forced to walk long distances home in the capital last weekend. It comes as the Covid pandemic saw a decrease in the number of taxis and by the end of 2020, there were just 19,350 taxis on the road in Ireland.
One taxi driver, who did not wish to be named, told Dublin Live that drivers working with FREE NOW are upset about the commission with the company rising to 15%.
