THE Senate Committee on Public Services has ordered Maxim Taxi Philippines Inc., a Russian-owned transport network service, to stop its operation as a passenger motorcycle taxi pending the approval of its application with the government transport regulating agency.
Senators slam Maxim Taxi for putting up its app for motorcycle taxi booking when its permit only allows it to deliver cargoes, thereby endangering the security and safety of passengers as it is not registered, with no insurance and also being unfair to legitimate riders. CONTRIBUTED PHOTO
