Black
Cabs
Black Cabs are the only taxi you can
hail from the street (though they now come in other colours
as well). With the "for hire" sign lit, the driver
is obliged to stop for you. Black
cabs are administered by the MET, so standards are high, drivers
must pass a stiff exam in the "Knowledge" of London
and are honour bound to take the shortest route. Black cabs
can be quite expensive though, especially after midnight and
if you get stuck in traffic as they run on meters.
Book in advance with Radio Taxis on (+44) 020 7272 0272 or
Dial a Cab on (+44) 020 7253 5000, both run 24-hour services
for black cabs. Complaints or Inquires should be made to the
Public Carriage Office on (+44) 020 7230 1631 (lost property
(+44) 020 7833 0996).
