On a rank, a phone box for incoming calls only, 1st on the rank answers it, takes a booking, off you go

We used to have one round here about 20 years ago. First car near the phone got out to answer it and that was his job.

I was thinking along the lines of a modern slant on them, the rank has a number, the 1st driver doesnt even need to get out the car to answer it with a bluetooth, wifi or skype link?
