<p>As if things couldn&#8217;t get any worse for #Uber, London&#8217;s transportation authority, Transportation For London or TFL, has declined to renew their license to operate in London. They don&#8217;t believe Uber is fit to hold a private vehicle hire license and announced today that they will not be renewing theirs when it expires on September 30th.</p>
<p>The TFL says that Uber&#8217;s “approach and conduct demonstrate a lack of corporate responsibility in relation to a number of issues which have potential public safety and security implications.” This decision will provide an inconvenience to Uber&#8217;s 3.5 million users and its 40,000 drivers who will now have to find other sources of income.</p>

<p>Uber&#8217;s London general manager Tom Elvidge says that the company plans to challenge the TFL&#8217;s decision. &#8220;To defend the livelihoods of all those drivers, and the consumer choice of millions of Londoners who use our app, we intend to immediately challenge this in the courts,&#8221; he said Friday.</p>
<p>Yikes!!</p>
