POLICE, transport and immigration officers swooped on taxis in Brisbane's inner city on Thursday night in a major crackdown on drivers.
Dozens of officers closed down parts of Fortitude Valley after 7pm, in a major operation targeting defective vehicles, breathalysing drivers and reviewing immigration details.
A spokesman for the Department of Transport said on Thursday night that four transport officers had joined the operation to check for defective vehicles and to verify taxi licences.
Immigration officers were also on the scene, checking the visa status of drivers.
