    Uber loses court case

    They have lost a case on English language tests for their drivers in London.

    It means that the drivers they use as workers must be able to read road signs.

        well thats exactly what the guy at the bottom of the article was saying

        but I completely agree with the ruling - if you offer a service based offering which requires accurate and concise communication then it needs to be able to done in the native language of the country you are in

            The fact that they can read and write English means it is more difficult for the likes of Uber to exploit them.

            So no wonder Uber doesn't want them to be able to read and write to that level.

              too true, can't see why the Notting hill mob can't understand that.
