Taxi Driver

Taxi drivers pick up passengers and transport them as quickly as possible to their destination, whilst ensuring that the safety and comfort of the passengers are maintained.

They will be expected to transport the passenger in a safe manner but they will also be
required to travel as quickly as possible without breaking the law or making the journey dangerous. Taxi drivers will either drive a hackney carriage, which are most common in

large towns and cities, or a private hire vehicle, which are common in smaller towns and
villages where the demand for taxis is generally lower. As such, taxi drivers may pick up passengers in a spontaneous manner or they may pick up passengers who have booked

their services well in advance. The distances travelled by taxi drivers vary widely. Many
passengers simply need to be transported from one location in a town to another, whilst some will require longer journeys, for instance those travelling from their homes to an airport.
