Interesting statistic, if its true, Last year 214 women were sexually assaulted by unlicensed taxi drivers in the capital(London). A new service is been promoted to allow you to phone the cab direct by this outfit ZingoTaxi although at £1.60 a call its sounds a tad expensive. Full story here. The number to call is 08700 700 700 and apparently it is set up by the makers of the London Cabs an interesting example of vertical integration! I think I need to check those assault figures though!

Crikey just read Zingo is a 50 strong team who are burning their way through £8million pounds. Thats a lot of calls at £1.60 a pop!
