New technology from Cabcharge will see taxi drivers unable to overcharge passengers, in a move described as “a step in the right direction”.
Director of the Victorian Taxi’s Association, Peter Valentine, says a lack of regulations in the industry has resulted in a high number of taxi operators who have to compete.
“If you drop them [regulations], and you don’t have enforcement either, then you have a problem that grows like Topsy,” he told 3AW Breakfast.
