The pros and cons of cross-border hiring? :D


Personally im a fan, we often get calls for out of area pickup's, i also often see PH cars from out of our area picking up in my area, i don't really have anything negative to say about it. So long as the ruling is applied to all company's and policed properly, during the time i have run my company my booking records have never been checked for cross border hire.


Cross border hiring 7.2 Taxis can take passengers from within their licensed area to other LAs but cannot accept bookings for passengers or ply for hire outside the area in which they are licensed. PHVs can take passengers from any point to any other providing the PHV driver, vehicle and operator are licensed in the same area. We believe that the current position on cross border hiring adversely affects consumers and drivers to a limited extent but accept that local licensing and enforcement procedures make cross border hiring difficult to implement.

pro's: Seems to me that its great for the customers, and drivers doing out of area hiring.

Cons: Try policing it, i am not aware that it has ever been policed in my area, that's the problem, how on earth could any local LO police it?

Sorry my earlier answer seems a bit daft now.....Doh blonde moment!

I have quite literally done it all in this game from sweeping the floors to doing the office security on a saturday night, i've been a controller and a tele op and almost everything else in between.

I feel that i may be experienced enough to offer advise about most things PH related, has anyone got anything that they would like to ask?

What colour underwear do you use?


Grandad you're soooooo bad, he might not wear any :shock:


Toots on a recent radio show they had a survey, and found out that 75% of 18 to 30 year old men and women always go commando at the weekends :shock: :shock: :shock:


I remember a survey about womens legs. 8% of men preferred women will fat legs and 9% preferred women with thin legs. The rest prefered something in between. :mrgreen:


Aye...the Bit that Talked..
