London’s pedicabs could be forced to turn down music and charge by the minute

TfL’s regulation proposals also include enhanced criminal record checks, vehicle inspections and driver ID

London’s party rickshaws will be told to turn down the music and clock up legitimate fares under plans to regulate the pedicabs, which are known for riotous journeys and ruinous expense.

Transport for London (TfL) is releasing its detailed proposals as it vows to remove unsafe vehicles from the streets after overwhelming support for regulation in an initial consultation earlier this year.
