Student safety tips when travelling with any taxi company
- Ask for free callback to avoid waiting outside in an unfamiliar area.
- Ask for text back.
- Always try and pre-book your taxi if possible
- Wait in groups and in a well-lit area
- Make sure the driver has a council licence plate on the back of the vehicle. (This means that the car is correctly insured to carry passengers)
- Do not flag down a vehicle that is not a hackney (it will not be insured to take you unless it is pre-booked)
- Ask to see the drivers I.D. badge
- If the vehicle has been fitted with a meter then ensure that the driver switches this on at the start of the journey.
- Ask for a receipt
