Why are people so stupid, hackney cabs should not ask for money up front
They should if the punter looks like they don't have the means to pay (it's an acceptable excuse for refusing the fare)

they are governed by meters and have to by law use them so how can they say how much the fare will be,
Most drivers are experienced enough to know roughly how much it costs from A-B

ask for a deposit by all means,
That's what they are doing, deposit, fare up front, it all means the same we're just twisting words here.
Our tariff sheets now include words along the lines of 'The driver can ask for a deposit to cover the fare before travel, failure to do so may result in the hire being refused'
