In the case that you have an incident with another vehicle, you are able to follow up with a complaint to the relevant authorities whether the police came to the incident or not. For different types of vehicle, complaints can be made to different companies or organisations, as follows:

Police/Traffic Police

The process is explained on what to do at an incident. All complaints to the police can also be made soon after the incident, and by post.

Transport Complaints Unit

They can be contacted for all types of complaint by telephone or post, or there is a useful form on the TCU website. Their contact details are also on the page with the form. We suggest that all complaints are sent to TCU, whether the police are involved or not.

The TCU hotlines on 2889 9999 and 2577 6866, and operate 24 hours a day though they are not emergency hotlines. TCU is valid for all incidents, but especially effective for public service vehicles.

Bus Company/Operator

Though you can send complaints directly to the bus companies/operators, complaints are often best sent through the Transport Complaints Unit.

Minibus Associations

Though you can send complaints directly to the minibus associations, complaints are often best sent through the Transport Complaints Unit.

Taxis

The Transport Complaints Unit has a dedicated taxi complaint form on their website (different to the ones linked above).

Taxi Associations aren’t so keen on handling complaints, since they represent the drivers, instead of employing them.

Some general guidance on how to respond as a witness are:
