Please be aware that it is very dangerous to get into an unlicensed vehicle for a lift that you pay for. You can not guarantee the safety of the vehicle or driver and the driver will not be insured in the event of an accident. If a Private Hire Vehicle picks you up without a booking, they will also not be insured and are acting illegally.
- Never get into a vehicle that does not display an appropriate plate at the rear. It is not insured and may not be licensed.
- Ensure that the driver is displaying an Oxford City Council approved badge.
- Make a note of the licence number of any vehicle you hire.
In ensuring that Oxford is a safe city for people to live in, work in or visit, the Licensing Team work within the NightSafe Partnership.
