Just out of curiosity I was wondering what percentage of the users on here are hackney/PH or limo (or other) ?

I have held a hackney badge for 15 years and all my drivers on my board are also hackney (no point in PH round here totally derestricted)

what about the rest of you ?

I'm a PH man myself.

If ever a time came in the future when I had a taxi license, then I would be merely a PH with a license to ply. :wink:

Here was me thinking an ageing socialist had helped you in that direction already?

As long as you have a French driver's license then you would fit that bill. :shock:

A little birdy told me one tuk tuk driver got done for dropping off on zig-zags. It would appear that he didn't know the highway code as he has never had to read it. :shock:

And as he doesn't have a UK license he has to be summons to court. :D
