The driver's story - documentary

Meet our sound man // Documentary production about to begin

In this episode, we invited a member of our production team, Sam the Sound Man. He shares his thoughts about the project, what made him say yes and join the team and also some of his personal views about why this is such a crucial issue we should be talking about more.  Let us know your thoughts and comments down below!

TFL, CC and customer information

Moving forward with the doc and talking to more drivers

This week we gained more clarity about what drivers would like to see in our documentary and we managed to do that by talking with more drivers.     Find us on Twitter and Facebook at The driver's story   Help us make this a reality by donating at https://www.gofundme.com/manage/the-drivers-story-documentary

Making sense of what drivers need and want from our documentary!

How many times have you used a ride-hailing app? You see the car moving on the map, you have the driver's photo, the car make and model, his registration, his license number. How many times have you thought about what he sees?  On the other end of that screen, there is a driver who sees a name and sometimes that's a nickname, and nothing else. Amidst the pandemic, people have been financially hit and last month TFL reported an increase in attacks on drivers working on ride-hailing apps. It all culminated on the 17 of February when one driver was stabbed and killed. This is how the project of a documentary came about, telling the story that no one knows. The story of your minicab driver.
