I don't think the intention of the sticker is to catch a unlicensed spouse using the vehicle.

Its intention is to provide the public with a instantly recognisable mark to assure them the vehicle is legitimate.

and good on them I say

They may as well put a 'Taxi' sign on the roof & be done with it!!


I don't know what the sign says ........................ but I do know that it won't include any words that would suggest it was a taxi or that it was available for immediate hirings.

Whats the issue here anyway .................................. because the end of the world doesn't follow the use of such stickers

personally i dont give a stuff


i WOULDNT pickup off the street, i dont do "taxi" work, all mines contract or very pre-booked

your welcome to the strife

BTW, a roof light could say "dont get in, its NOT a taxi" and may as well be in hieroglyphics cos the pish heads will ONLY see a taxi in front of em, its like an attractant, like moths to a light

good luck

Aye its a true quote from a member called Skull ......................... who didn't want to wait in a queue for a HC plate because he wanted the "premium" of it without obsticle or delay but stated the true and full quote of my signature in a post.

I want I want I want ....................................... without having to do the same or pay the same as everyone else .......................... because I'm special ................. yeah special needs.

This all very well BUT similar signs have been introduced in other parts of the country and it doesn't stop PH's touting or other abuses
