Can someone explain after all how much the limo safety will be improved?
We feel the implementation of the new law does not serve a major purpose toward improvement of the safety of the limousine industry and it seems to be just a ploy by the lobbyist on behalf of the transport industry to collect extra income from an industry that is already suffering from the current recession.
Judge for yourself!
Within the 15 years of trading in the UK, there has never been a fatal accident and no one ever has died inside the limousine.
What about airplanes, trains, coaches, minibuses, black cabs? Which industry has the highest safety records?
Days are numbered for many limo companies in the UK.
According to a notice from “VOSA”, the limos will be clamped and crushed if not applying for new licences which can costs around £18,000 per limo.
People, who paid for limo hire and booked their limos in advance, may not be able to have the service.
