but how do the guys in england that do runs for Hire and reward get away with it.

sooooooooo..how do they get away with it??? is there a Clause in a rule book somewhere that lets them get away with it? and how does it Pay???

There is case law down here that made what most of the seven exemption trader illegal. But they still did it as no-one enforced the law.

But now that case law is no-longer needed, as the exemption is a thing of the past. TBH I'm surprised your government hasn't followed suit.

But the theres loads of these guys in the affluent north east of england...hmmmm..maybe affluent is the wrong choice of words, but still theres plenty about.

If they are picking up in Scotland it doesn't matter where they are based. If they are picking up in England then best they are licensed.

Not saying everyone is pukka, but if they are not then, in time, they will be caught.

I suppose they only way around for some is to get a PSV restricted license, but for under 9 passengers they will only be able to charge separately. Well that's what the law says.

According to the Whois register they are based just outside of London, so they need to be licensed.

I have an exemption from my LA so that I don't have to display the plates on the outside of either my stretched limos or my executive cars, so it may be that SOME of these vehicles have the same exemption. No exemption is available for the driver not to wear his/her drivers badge. PCV and restricted PCV vehicles have to display the disc in the front window of the vehicle. The vast majority of vehicles that used the contract exemption before it was removed have simply not bothered to get licensed. Lets face it, if the driver has no badge on display and his car is parked in the car park, who, with any certainty, would know that they were not just an employee of the company that the passenger works for?
Just no enforcement taking place at all.

A Valid point...whos to know

I like the Idea of an exemption to show plates though...a bit more classy than a

It must be a Highly lucrative business this top end executive driver and Vehicle hire as I certainly couldnt run Vehicles of that Value as a PH operator. sooooooooo..how do they get away with it??? is there a Clause in a rule book somewhere that lets them get away with it? and how does it Pay???
