In a world of Uber and Lyft, where London\u2019s ever-rising population makes driving or riding in a car an unattractive prospect for many, is there still room for the old-fashioned black cab?<\/p>\n<p>Absolutely! Not only are tourists keen to be driven around the capital in one of these iconic vehicles, but there is also a steady stream of people who want to take \u2018the knowledge\u2019 so that they can make a living driving a London black cab.<\/p>\n<p>You may have heard of the knowledge before, it is a term that anyone wanting to drive a black cab will need to familiarise themselves with, which is just one component that you need in order to work as a black cab driver.<\/p>\n<p>Below is a checklist of all the essentials that you need in place before you can work as a black cab driver in London. Make sure that you are ready and able to meet all of these requirements before you get your heart set on the life of a cabby in London.<\/p>\n<p><strong>You Must be 21 Years Old<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the UK you can start driving long before you\u2019re 21. In fact, you can apply for your taxi licence when you\u2019re just 18. However, you cannot receive your licence until you reach the age of 21.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, there\u2019s no wiggle room on this one, if you aren\u2019t 21 yet then you\u2019re going to have to wait.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, that doesn\u2019t mean that you can\u2019t use the time to get everything else in order so that you are ready to go as soon as your licence is granted.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Must Be Eligible to Live and Work in the UK<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Naturally, if you want to get a job then you will need to be legally able to do so. If you\u2019re from the UK or Ireland you\u2019re already covered, since citizens from the UK and Ireland are able to freely travel between their countries as per a number of international agreements.<\/p>\n<p>However, if you are coming from another EU nation, things <em>should <\/em>still be simple but Brexit throws all this up in the air.<\/p>\n<p>If you are planning on continuing to live in the UK in the long term and will apply for residency this isn\u2019t so much of an issue. However, if you\u2019re relying on the continued right to work being granted by UK-EU treaties, there are no guarantees beyond October (perhaps sooner).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Must Have a Full UK Driving Licence<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This one is simple enough &#8211; if you are going to be driving for a living, then you need to be properly licenced to drive on the UK\u2019s roads.<\/p>\n<p>You won\u2019t be able to obtain a taxi licence without presenting your driving licence and, although we shouldn\u2019t really have to tell you this, operating as a taxi driver without either licence is a <em>very <\/em>bad idea.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pass the \u2018Knowledge\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is the biggest hurdle to becoming a black cab driver. Forget about all the other steps involved &#8211; that\u2019s all just paperwork and a small financial investment.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s here, with the knowledge test, that things start to get tricky. The knowledge is why London\u2019s black cab drivers are so revered and iconic; the knowledge requires them to have a comprehensive knowledge of London\u2019s roads and traffic systems.<\/p>\n<p>Studies have shown that London\u2019s black cab drivers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/news\/health-16086233\">develop a part of their brain<\/a>, the hippocampus, much more than the rest of us. This is the part of our brains that is linked to memory, and so it is believed that black cab drivers develop the ability to hold a much more complex mental image of the world around them than the rest of us.<\/p>\n<p>Passing the knowledge is notoriously difficult, but it\u2019s worth it for a bigger brain!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Getting Your Cab Insured<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You will need to get your black cab insured before you can drive it on the roads. You\u2019ll need a taxi insurance policy, a special type of car insurance that covers minicabs, black cabs and people carriers to transport people and their belongings.<\/p>\n<p>The cost of taxi insurance can vary depending on a number of factors, but using a website like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.quotezone.co.uk\/taxi-insurance\">quotezone.co.uk<\/a> makes it much easier to find the best available deal for your vehicle. By filling in a simple form on their website you can access a range of insurance quotes that suit your needs.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/2220601538_e36fe78e20_b.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-59529\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/2220601538_e36fe78e20_b.jpg?resize=580%2C363\" alt=\"2220601538_e36fe78e20_b\" width=\"580\" height=\"363\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In addition to the above, you will also need to be in reasonably good physical health and not have had any serious criminal convictions. You might not expect to need particularly good health in order to be a cab driver but, remember, when you are carrying passengers, you are responsible for their safety.<\/p>\n<p>Working as a black cab driver in London is a viable career option for anyone who loves the idea of driving passengers around London. If you have experience working as a taxi driver then that will definitely help. However, be prepared for the challenge of the knowledge and make sure you have all your paperwork in order.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Become a Black Cab Driver in London London\u2019s iconic black cabs are recognised around the world as a&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":59529,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1],"tags":[13603,13604,13605,13602],"features_issues":[],"featured_themes":[],"ppma_author":[16671],"class_list":["post-59528","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-100-percent-design","tag-black-cab","tag-knowldege","tag-london-black-cab-driving","tag-taxi"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Webbed;
