The only folks allowed to drive hackneys are hackney drivers licensed in the same area as the vehicle. Other than mechanics when road testing.

This is one of the two landmark cases, and refers to the other.

Can't really improve on what sussex offered up.

I would forget about crown court decisions if I were you and concentrate on high court judgments.
