GBC could they not put a wide yellow band around the centre of the cabs as well as the yellow plates the band could be the same sticky stuff used for lettering
The information as to what cab is what could be put on all web sits and information literature
If I understand this correctly, it's not the cab that's zoned - it's the driver.
The cab can be used by any licenced driver in any zone, provided he has a yellow badge valid for that zone or a green badge valid in all zones.
Some cabs are used in different zones by different drivers so whatever is used must be changed when the driver changes.
Have I got this right?
Yes.
The Taxi is licensed for use anywhere in London, by Transport For London.
As you say, some GBC's share with YBC's !
But . . . . from whatever date onwards, the driver will have to make the huge effort to take one (two?) small identifiers with him when he leaves the cab if he / she is sharing.
If, like me and the majority of London drivers, you own your own cab and you're the only driver (Utopia according to some) then you'll pop the cards in the plastic sleeves and leave them in place.
Should be simple enough.
