The Taxi Dri­vers Net­work says in­stead of be­ing scrapped, the De­mer­it Points Sys­tem (DPS) should be re­struc­tured to en­sure fair­ness to the mo­tor­ing pub­lic.

At a me­dia con­fer­ence in San Fer­nan­do, yes­ter­day, Net­work Pres­i­dent Adri­an Acos­ta said the sys­tem serves a pur­pose in pe­nal­is­ing dan­ger­ous dri­ving. How­ev­er, the cri­te­ria for dis­qual­i­fy­ing dri­vers should be re­con­sid­ered.

He said the Net­work is seek­ing a meet­ing with Min­is­ter of Trans­port Eli Za­k­our to dis­cuss the mat­ter.
