What do I do if I believe I wrongly received an infringement notice for a cab?
If you weren't driving at the time, you will be able to discuss the infringement notice with the Taxi Operator of the nominated cab and request that they check their records. If the Taxi Operator is unable to change the nominated Driver, you can provide a statutory declaration to Civic Compliance to dispute the infringement notice.
You may request, in person, for a Driver Services Team member to check 13CABS records and advise you if you were driving the nominated taxi cab at the time stated.
13CABS will not provide letters exonerating you from infringement notice responsibility.
