Taxi Industry Fighting Carpools

The Taxi industry in Diepsloot is trying to stop carpooling by requiring owners of cars used for carpooling to register with the taxi association.

Residents in Diepsloot who want to use their cars in lift clubs have to get permission from the local taxi association. If they don't, their passengers risk being yanked out of the car and forced to take a taxi.
