'Fine passengers who are sick in our cabs'
MORE than £1,000 can be lost if someone is sick in a taxi, with some drivers calling for a system of fines to be toughened up.

It comes after the Jersey Taxi Drivers' Association argued that anyone who soils their vehicles should be fined £100, to cover lost earnings and compensate for cleaning costs.
The Guernsey Taxi Federation's president Leon Gallienne said it had a policy whereby it fined someone £300 if they vomit in or cause drunken damage to a taxi.
'But anything bound in law would be more effective than our own policies, to be honest any compensation would be beneficial to us and would be a more efficient process.'
