Recommendations
I recommend that the Scottish Ministers and the Secretary of State for Transport urgently review the current regulations with a view to rescinding the present exemption from wearing seat belts as applicable to taxi drivers either it it’s entirety or at least to amend it so that it no longer applies to Hackney or other specially built taxi cabs or to Private Hire Vehicles when they have no passengers in the rear seats.
Under section 28 of the 2016 Act, each recipient of a recommendation must respond within 8 weeks.
The window from publication ran to 28 December 2010.
