The main complaint is that they don't (do much checking). And
reportedly the problem with insurance is they don't track
cancellations
I'm not even sure there's a mechanism for that even if they wanted
to
They could do spot checks on the drivers, say once a month on
averagefor each, and blacklist the ones without insurance.
I think you mean take them to court to get 6 points on their licence?
No, but the licensing authorities and police are.
Why would Uber snitch on their customers (and make no mistake, Uber's
customers are the drivers, passengers are the customers of the
drivers).
Because the consequences of them being found out covering up such illegality
will have far more serious consequences for their business than jettisoning
the odd driver or two.
Let's get them doing the regular checks first. One step at a time!
