Number plates mix up on ZRs
TWO?route taxis, with the same registration number on the same route, created a major stir this week.
SATURDAY?SUN?investigations revealed that one vehicle had the registration number ZR 253 for a number of years and it was registered until December, while the other van received its registration this week.
Sources said both vans had been plying the No. 11 Silver Sands, Christ Church route from the Nursery Drive terminal since Tuesday.
The situation led to an outcry among route taxi operators, who complained that, vans with new permits were turning up in the terminal every day and it was leading to a saturation of routes, particularly in the Silver Sands and Silver Hill districts.
