NTA Tightens Taxi Rules | Ireland News

Taxi crackdown intensifies as NTA reports a 6% surge in complaints, with 165 fines and 28 cases referred to other agencies — two even went to court. Over 213,000 remote checks and 16,000 face-to-face audits led to 1,043 on-the-spot fines, up 15% from last year. Common violations? Vehicle standards, illegal parking, and missing cashless payment systems. Nearly half of 133 criminal prosecutions were for unlicensed operations. Despite the scrutiny, licensed vehicles rose 3%, adding over 600 to the roads — proving enforcement is tightening while the industry keeps growing.
