Can’t rent a cab anywhere and the new levc is 70k shocking amount doesn’t make sense so Iv been forced back to the building game after 3 years in the trade I’m gutted
While TFL remains in charge , we're looking at the last days of the Black Taxi trade. The Knowledge is now antiquated and no longer fit for purpose , most trades have on the job training , it doesn't exist in Black cabs , as an example before Driving Instructors get their Green badge , they are allowed to work on a Red trainee badge , maybe their should be a Red trainee badge for Knowledge boys , allowing them to work after map test, learn on the job and earn but with a lower meter tarriff , ( and a notice to passengers that the driver is "trainee status" ) , which increases as they progress through appearances. The old guard won't like it but clearly people aren't attracted by the trade.

If you get through the knowledge no cabs to rent and cabs to expensive to buy, something needs to be sorted quickly or how trade will die.

Amazing idea!!
VTaiwan solved the problem with taxis and uber in Taiwan by using technology that allowed all parties have a say.
