Taxi Laws – Taxi Service














People usually go for taxi because it’s an easy and quick way of transport, plus affordable if you choose to get service from taxi service provider companies. And interesting thing is, there are few rules and laws that taxi service are bound to follow.
Here is the list of taxi service laws that you might now know of in past.
·         If you are in a Wokingham taxi and driver is listening to something on taxi tape or radio that you don’t like. Well, first of all, he has to take your permission to turn it on and if you don’t like it, you can ask them to change it or turn it off any time. Because it is against the law to play tape without passenger’s permission.

·         An interesting face is that taxi drivers are not allowed to wear untidy clothes, they cannot wear clothes that are tear or have holes in them or stained

·         Law says that you (a taxi driver) must have a road map in your taxi, whether you have GPS installed or not. Although almost all the taxis are equipped with GPS, but map is must

·         Drivers CANNOT in any case smoke inside the cab when they have a passenger. It’s strictly forbidden

·         If you lost something inside the taxi and you had booked that taxi via some taxi service like Crowthorne cab, you are in for a treat because the taxi service companies have “lost and found” section where you can contact for lost item

·         Taxi drivers are not allowed to work more that 12 hrs a day and 72 hrs a week

·         It’s not easy to get license of taxi driver. Drivers take classes of etiquette and city’s geographical history along with driving lessons

·         London taxi drivers have to take “the knowledge” course of three years to get London taxi driver’s license
