£7-£9 tops depending on lights.

It turns out he was a Private hire driver who has a chipped meter and isn't licensed with Nottingham City Council, sounds like he was a Gedling badged driver.

I think that he is refering to having it unofficially recalibrated to a figure that we all would like - not to the tariff set by the L.A/Council.

A bit of a strange one seeing as the meter is right in you face so to speak. That meter must have been tripping over like a drug dealers money counting machine..........and then they wait until the end of the journey to confront him! I would have been out of there like a shot.........is that a set up video Or was it for real?
