MUM’S CARS IN NOTTINGHAM
Cab drivers with a difference When Jeegisha Dinnall, 35, was
stranded one evening in October 2008 and every cab firm told her there were no taxis available, she stumbled upon the idea of Mum’s Cars. She
explains, “That night, I got home thanks to a kind taxi-firm owner, who sent his
wife to pick me up. I felt safer with a female driver so, wanting to help other young women, I set up a female-only taxi service called Mum’s Car. I now employ seven female drivers.” And the women of Nottingham couldn’t be more grateful, as Victoria, 22, a marketing assistant from the city,explains: “A friend of mine recently had a lucky escape after being threatened with a knife by a male taxi driver demanding oral sex. Now I prefer using a female cabbie.” Proof that one number you should always have in your phone is a registered local taxi firm.
In Nottingham, mums cars clearly is the word.
