Uber isn't considered "fit and proper" to operate in London. Authorities denied the ride-hailing company’s request to renew its license to operate in the British capital, which expires on Sept 30. The company has 21 days to appeal and can continue to operate during that time. In a surprise decision, Transport for London declared “Uber’s approach and conduct demonstrate a lack of corporate responsibility” when it comes to reporting crimes, submitting drivers’ medical certificates, and other issues. Uber says it has 3.5 million users and 40,000 drivers in the city.
