Taxis banned from Camp Humphreys for a day
Looks like they need more training! Taxis will be banned Monday from operating at Camp Humphreys so drivers can attend a training session, officials said.
The safety $)C!0stand-down!1 will be in effect from midnight Sunday to midnight Monday.
Army Col. Michael J. Taliento Jr. said he ordered the one-day taxi ban because of recurring complaints of hazardous driving practices by some of the post!/s 80 or so taxi drivers. Reminding drivers about winter safety hazards also is an aim, he said. Taliento is commander of the Area III Support Activity at Camp Humphreys, which is in Pyeongtaek.
!0This has been the No. 1 issue that we!/ve seen repeatedly brought up. !& It!/s a steady community concern,!1 Taliento said in a recent telephone interview. !0The command is not going to tolerate drivers driving fast!1 or otherwise driving unsafely, he said.
