What actions can lead to immediate suspension of an FHV license?

Immediate suspension of an FHV license is typically a result of serious offenses that undermine public safety and the integrity of for-hire vehicle services. Driving under the influence, engaging in violent conduct, or repeatedly violating TLC rules directly impacts the welfare of both passengers and the general public. These actions are considered grave infractions because they risk the safety of individuals and reflect poorly on the professional standards expected from drivers in the industry.

Consequently, the presence of such severe violations warrants prompt disciplinary action, which is why these specific behaviors can lead to immediate suspension. This approach ensures that drivers who compromise safety are swiftly dealt with to maintain a safe environment for all users of for-hire vehicle services.
