The best a judicial review can come up with is that ALL private hire vehicles can use bus lanes which would rather bugger it up for the buses I think. My guess is that Griffin has got too big for his boots and is due for a rude awakening.
I hope anyway.
This is why I cannot see the result going in Griffin's favour, in the unlikely event that this happens the whole idea of bus lanes would be made redundant overnight. There are many people who registered their private cars as minicabs in order to avoid paying the congestion charge when it was introduced, it is a very easy process and I would imagine large numbers of people would do so in order to use bus lanes.
Also judicial reviews are notoriously long and expensive, it could be ruinously expensive for them.
