The Fleet
Our vehicles are all white taxis that have passed an M.O.T. every year (after year 1, as required for public service vehicles) and a special annual test carried out in the Worthing Borough Council’s Testing Centre.
They carry a taxi plate affixed to the rear of the vehicle, an internal plate on the front windscreen visible from the inside and outside, both have the vehicle’s hackney carriage number and registration number for identification.
They're all fitted with a taximeter, which must be used, for all journeys from a taxi rank and for trips within 12 miles of the Town centre to show the maximum fare to be charged. This has been calibrated in accordance with the current tariff chart (
See Price Guide), which must be displayed in the vehicle.
The driver is entitled to the fare displayed unless an arrangement has been made prior to the commencement of the journey. (It is a criminal offence to get into and take a journey by taxi without the means pay the fare at the end of the journey) The driver is entitled to request a deposit for the fare before accepting the booking. A receipt will be given on request.
Our vehicles will have 2 sets of door signs, one required by Worthing Borough Council and one with our company logo, and roof signs as required by Worthing Borough Council.
Environmental Concerns
We take environmental concerns very seriously. In our office we recycle our used paper and printer cartridges. When we dispatch our vehicles we send the closest available car to reduce fuel costs. All our vehicles are the latest models with fuel-efficient engines and reduced carbon emissions. We keep abreast of all environmental concerns
