You’re being warned to always double-check a taxi is legitimate before you get into one.
It’s after Gardaí yesterday stopped a bogus taxi driver who had no licence or insurance and they seized his car.
He was bringing passengers from Carlow to Dublin Airport.
Local taxi driver, Derek Devoy says there is an app for your phone – DriverCheck – that you can download that will tell you within seconds whether or not a taxi is registered.
