Cabbies Across the Island Squeal Over New RTA

Scores of taxi operators across the country have opted to strike amid the government’s revision of the regulations and penalties for the Road Traffic Act (RTA).

They say they are firm in their decision to continue protest actions until the regulations are revised. One frustrated operator says it is paramount for taxi operators to be involved in the government’s decision-making. Watch the report below:
