Overseers will put the brakes on illegal taxisHATS off to the Dubai Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) for its initiative to engage 30 retired UAE citizens as overseers to report and catch people found using their private cars as taxis. The new officials have all served in the army or the police and are particularly familiar with the job. They would be eligible for a monthly remuneration of Dh1,000 in addition to 5 per cent of the value of fines they collect from offenders, provided that the total collected charges do not exceed Dh9,000 a month. The initiative will not only protect and safeguard the rights of cabbies affiliated to the RTA but create jobs for retired nationals who feel they have more years of service left in them. Drivers who employ their own cars or leased vehicles to shuttle passengers will either dwindle in number or just vanish. read more.
