           Doesn't seem quite right!  This is the share of total miles/kilometres ride-hail vehicles

          61            %             travelled without a passenger in the car in 2018, according to

                                      an estimate released by the California Air Resources Board last
                                      month. The report also estimates that the ride-hail fleet—Uber,
                                      Lyft and others—emitted 50 percent more CO2 than the statewide

                                      include fewer light trucks and are more fuel efficient than those in
                                      the statewide fleet.


           P2P Transport has suspended its 300 Digital Taxi Tops under its Adflow brand.  The company said it
            has identified further technical issues with Digital Tops.  P2P believes it will not have any material
                  effect on the financial performance as previous revenues have been very minimal.
