While it may not be ‘Uber’ rides and ride sharing is roaring in this country, the amount of unregulated ‘taxi’ services and hackers is out of control. One of these days govt will realise that the old taxi plate regime has been dead and surpassed for years. That number of limo services and ‘private hire’ type vehicles roaming about this country on private vehicle plates is insane.
Police power trippin’ and putting citizens lives at risk unnecessarily. The amount of damage and chaos they cause when they do that crap is unreal. What doesn’t get reported is how many vehicles are damaged on an almost daily basis when they do this foolishness…just doesn’t get reported as they’re are no injuries.
Yeah, man...just pop up a shack and start selling...don't have to worry about building codes, safety regulations, heck, you could probably duck business license and VAT until you take up half the block.
Better off going back to bucket trains if this is the best the FD has at their disposal. Sad situation for sure. As with anything with these governments (they are both as bad as each other), sheer lack of proper maintenance and foresight rules the day. Wait until things break and something major happens then it's a knee jerk reaction to come in with 'new' stuff that you are just going to let rot all over again.
Ain’t a damn thing gonna happen…they will make some noise, but nothing of any significance will ever happen. Bear in mind, Trump has now removed any anti bribery laws…so we know the guvment dem just chomping at the bit!! Show me da money!!

I’m surprised this is posed as a question and not a statement. Just proves how backward a nation we are led by parents with no parenting skills.
