Wife had had a scan yesterday, had a cannula, came out booked a taxi as i was covering her school PA job, taxi picked her up, pulled away, went round the BACK of the hospital and picked up another job! he dropped that passenger first in town (wifes route went nowhere the town) without charging and told wife "dont worry i not charge you extra" !!!!! Needless to say I am on the case |

Taxi or PHV sharing by advanced booking (Section 11, Transport Act 1985) This legislation allows operators to set up an initiative for up to eight passengers to share a vehicle. Passengers will be matched together based on their origins and destinations and booked in advance with agreed separate fares - each price lower than a single hiring. This legislation allows for one-off shared trips e.g. passengers travelling from/to a common origin/destination such as an airport transfer, or for more regular journeys e.g. daily commutes to a train station for onward travel. |

Not sure the above alines with wannabee's account. I will be amazed if there is a booking for the other job. |

Quote: booked in advance with agreed separate fares - each price lower than a single hiring Wife didnt pre-agree, didnt even KNOW till passenger 2 got in and passenger 2 paid nothing, wife had the booking msg on her phone, her name route pickup to home, not via 2nd drop Quote: PH rules, passenger must be taken to the destination by the most direct route unless passenger request other

But Mrs Wanna must have surely got a feel for what was going on as regards the second passenger, surely? Eg, freebie for friend, hospital contract, etc. |

Wanna wrote: they had 2 jobs, 2 bookings but only 1 car Ah, you simply mean it was two different bookings in the same car  You made it sound as if there was some mystery about the other booking, and that it may have been FOC. Firstly, Wanna wrote: he dropped that passenger first in town (wifes route went nowhere the town) without charging... Then, Wanna wrote: Wife didnt pre-agree, didnt even KNOW till passenger 2 got in and passenger 2 paid nothing...
