Public safety issues: Ola’s licence cancelled

Published by

One of the leading Cab aggregators, Ola, has faced a big blow in London after public transport authority cancelled the operating licence considering the alleged breaches in passenger safety norms.

According to Sky News, Transport for London (TfL) has revoked the licence after finding several glitches which could have risked citizens safety. The key reasons for cancellation of Ola licence are unlicensed drivers and Ola vehicles taking more than 1000 passenger trips.

The Bengaluru headquartered company has began its London operations in February this year. Since then, Ola is competing with other rivals like Uber, Freenow, Bolt, Black Cab et al.

Coincidentally, Ola was banned in London a day after Uber won a legal bid to restore its operating licence. Apart from London, Ola operates in other 27 cities of UK that include Birmingham, Bristol & Liverpool. The Indian cab aggregator has 21 days of review period to appeal the decision in court.
