What would happen if every taxi went PH, what would councils be able to do if it did happen. With the growing numbers of them in most places it looks like the way out of not having to buy a wav, and having the council controlling you except for the ilegal picking up of punters. Any person who at the moment goes to a rank would soon learn that they must call for a PH but they would still ask for a taxi

Well Jimbo ( remembering new years revolution) 
Would you rather be driving a saloon or MPV over a WAV PH to my thinking is a get out clause and lifts the burden of most hack rules and regs |

I think riff raff get in anything they are probably more likely than most to try and flag PH down or get in one they haven't booked and then kick it when they can't |

and no "london cabs" for PH work I know they both go through the same test and licence procedure, but that where the differences split I dont know about your rules regarding age or vehicle type , but in most areas there is no age policy or restriction on vehicle type and some are total sheds in some parts |
