Taxi Identification Advice

A senior Dundee councillor is urging the taxi trade to ensure that passengers travelling during Christmas and New Year know exactly who their driver is. 

Discussions have been ongoing between the city council and taxi operators to ensure that badges, plates and appropriate signage are displayed at all times. 

Councillor Stewart Hunter, convener of the licensing committee, explained that the move was about giving reassurance during the festive period to people who may not travel by taxi regularly. 

Cllr Hunter said: “We are working together with the taxi trade to make sure that people know exactly who their driver is when they get into a taxi. 

“The display of the appropriate signage and badge is a simple way of ensuring this. 

“The council works on an ongoing basis with the taxi trade to discuss issues that emerge.”
