Uber has again been denied licence renewal in London over safety risks

With Uber’s two-month license extension in London coming to an end, the company has once again been denied a full renewal by the cityâs transport regulator â which said that it had found a âpattern of failuresâ that put âpassenger safety and security at risk.”

This doesn’t mean the company has to halt London operations immediately. Instead, Uber says it will appeal the decision, and it will be able to continue operating in the city during the appeals process.
