With Public Safety very much in mind, it is Dudley Council’s policy to prosecute those Private Hire Drivers caught “plying for hire”.
It is illegal for a Private Hire Vehicle to carry passengers if the journey has not been pre booked through a licensed operator. In most cases the vehicle will not be insured during a journey that has not been correctly booked.
Members of the public are therefore extremely vulnerable if they “flag down” a Private Hire Vehicle. Information about Taxis in Dudley for the public.
Dudley Council carry out regular operations to stamp out the practice of “plying for hire” by Private Hire Drivers.
