Mobile Phone Use in a 247 Taxi

Using a phone or a Sat Nav when driving a 247 Car results in a £20 fine, but this is nothing compared to what Police will do to you.

It’s illegal to hold a phone or sat nav while driving or riding a motorcycle. You must have hands-free access, such as:

  • a bluetooth headset
  • voice command
  • a dashboard holder or mat
  • a windscreen mount
  • a built-in sat nav

The device must not block your view of the road and traffic ahead.

You must stay in full control of your vehicle at all times. The police can stop you if they think you’re not in control because you’re distracted and you can be prosecuted.

The law still applies to you if you’re:

  • stopped at traffic lights
  • queuing in traffic
  • supervising a learner driver

When you can use a hand-held phone

You can use a hand-held phone if either of these apply:

  • you’re safely parked
  • you need to call 999 or 112 in an emergency and it’s unsafe or impractical to stop

Penalties

You can get 6 penalty points and a £200 fine if you use a hand-held phone when driving. You’ll also lose your licence if you passed your driving test in the last 2 years.

You can get 3 penalty points if you don’t have a full view of the road and traffic ahead or proper control of the vehicle.

You can also be taken to court where you can:

  • be banned from driving or riding
  • get a maximum fine of £1,000 (£2,500 if you’re driving a lorry or bus)

Car Seat Rules – Under 3’s in a taxi

CAR SEAT RULES FOR TAXI AND PRIVATE HIRE VEHICLES

https://www.gov.uk/child-car-seats-the-rules/when-a-child-can-travel-without-a-car-seat

Children under 3 years old

When a child can travel without a car seat

A child aged 3 or older can travel in a back seat without a child car seat and without a seat belt if the vehicle doesn’t have one.

In most cases, children under 3 must always be in a child car seat.

The rules are different if:

  • the child is in a taxi or minicab
  • the child is in a minibus, coach or van
  • the child is on an unexpected journey, for example an emergency
  • there’s no room for another car seaTaxis and minicabs (private hire vehicles)

If the driver doesn’t provide the correct child car seat, children can travel without one – but only if they travel on a rear seat:

  • and wear an adult seat belt if they’re 3 or older
  • without a seat belt if they’re under 3

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES CAN THE NUMBER OF PASSENGERS EXCEED WHAT YOUR VEHICLE LICENCE ALLOWS YOU TO CARRY SO A CAR CANNOT CARRY MORE THAN 4 PERSONS INCLUDING THE BABY.
