This industry should not exist , only in the far most reaches, of some back water . How can it possibly be safe, to drive round with absolutly any nut job, or groups of nut jobs ,in the back of a car . Unless you way 20 stone . Do your self a favour and drive a proper taxi. Whats your p h forum for, tips on self defence.


Nice contribution :?:

As all jobs are pre-booked with address, telephone number and name mandatory for the PCO regs - how can that be less safe than plying for hire on the streets?

Wos u dreamin of been a black cab driver during nglish lesons?

People here seem to be pre-occupied with body weight!!

I think the vast magority of LPH work is done properly, in fact due to the shortage of licensed drivers, they have more work than they can cover. The illegal pickups are done in the main by illegal un-licensed taxis.

All that aside, is there anyone out there who's whiter than white?

I wonder what AndyP or Roy will say about that phrase? :?

Exactly the touts are touts.

LHP doing illegal work is as bad, and as common, as yellow badge drivers picking up in the green zone. [-X
