A senior police officer in Derby has urged the city council to introduce an age limit for taxis after describing the state of the fleet as "unacceptably poor".

Ch Supt Jim Allen said an inspection of ten taxis in Derby last month found them all to be defective and seven were in such a bad state they had to be taken off the road immediately.

He said a taxi inspected in May had such a badly corroded floor pan, he was able to push a biro through and see the road surface. Another car was displaying 329,000 miles on its odometer.

Derby City Council is unusual in not having an age limit on its taxi fleet but its licensing committee is due to meet next week to discuss the idea of bringing one in.

The authority said it did not want to comment until after that meeting.

Mohammed Saffaf, chairman of the Derby Hackney Carriage Union, said many drivers would not be able to afford to upgrade to newer vehicles at a time when trade was low.
