Wheelchair Training for Taxi Drivers

  • Reference: 2025/0676
  • Question by: Gareth Roberts
  • Meeting date: 25 February 2025
I have been approached by a resident who is a wheelchair user. They had an incident using a FREENOW electric taxi; they fell out of their chair alighting from the ramp due to a bad manoeuvre by the driver who was handling the wheelchair. They state that since 2018 taxi drivers no longer receive training for handling wheelchair users. Is this correct? What training or guidance is given to taxi drivers when it comes to supporting wheelchair users?
