Seat belt would have saved death crash taxi driver
Oct 7 2008 By Andrew Hirst
Mr Makhan Singh from the Hackney Carriage Association in Huddersfield said hardly any taxi drivers wear seatbelts in the town.
"It’s the nature of the job,’’ he said. "Very, very few taxi drivers wear seatbelts and I’m not sure you’ll ever get them to wear belts. Sometimes we just don’t feel safe."
He added: "All the taxi drivers throughout Huddersfield are deeply saddened. Mr Deo was such a popular colleague. Many have been to the family home to pay their respects.’’
