It appears the only time a Private Hire driver becomes a taxi driver, is when lasy journalists decide for themselves.

The Manchester Evening news has always used the word Taxi when describing private hire vehicles and drivers. It is a common failing amongst most journalists. The discrepancy has been pointed out to the Manchester Evening News on several occasions but they still insist on using the word Taxi, for both sides of the industry.
I must admit it was a good piece of detective work in finding the offender but I wonder why he wasn't insured?
I'll try and get some more info on this tonight.
