Travel safely
Every legal taxi in the UK is licensed. Here is how to tell.
- Only a hackney carriage (a black cab or council-plated taxi) can be hailed in the street or hired at a rank.
- Private hire vehicles and minicabs must be pre-booked through a licensed operator. Never get into one that simply approaches you.
- The vehicle should display a licence plate from the issuing authority, and the driver should wear or show a photo badge.
- When you book, ask for the driver’s name and the car’s make and registration, and check them before you get in.

- London
- Transport for London (TfL)
