Taxi Operator Struggles Amid Driver Shortage, Seeks Government Help

The owner of St. Lu Taxi & Tours, operating in the south of the island, has expressed frustration over the lack of communication from officials within the Transport Department and the Ministry of Tourism. He has made multiple attempts to secure certified taxi drivers for his company, following the implementation of the H-to-TX plate transition last year. This shortage of licensed taxi operators has led to a significant loss of business, and the owner is seeking guidance on whether to renew or use his existing H-plate vehicles to fully operate.
