Route Two Maxi Taxi As­so­ci­a­tion pres­i­dent Bren­ton Knights be­lieves that their two days of “rest and re­lax­ation” sent the mes­sage to the rel­e­vant au­thor­i­ties.

Speak­ing with Guardian Me­dia yes­ter­day, Knights said the strike was cut one day short to cater for the chil­dren cur­rent­ly writ­ing ex­ams.

He said there was a dai­ly as­sess­ment of the ef­fect of the protest, which called on maxi taxi op­er­a­tors across the coun­try to with­hold their ser­vices for three days.
