Care
About
Being
Safe

Make sure your taxi or Private Hire Car has a sign that shows it is registered and licensed.

All drivers carry identification and must produce it if asked.

Have a safe night out!

What to look for:

Look for these important items every time you use a Taxi (Hackney Carriage) or Mini Cab (Private Hire). The following items will ensure that you are travelling in safety:

1. Two Door Stickers - one at each side (Private Hire Mini Cabs).
2. Two Plates - one back and front.
3. Once inside the vehicle the driver will have a badge which should be worn on his/her person.
4. A small plate displaying the same number as the plates outside back and front, fixed inside, in view of the passengers.
5. Small circular window sticker with test expiry date, vehicle number and registration number.
