Limo Hire Law In England

Limo Hire Law

Limo hire Staffordshire, limousine hire Staffordshire : Limousines are all restricted to a maximum of eight passengers

no matter how large the vehicles are.

There are NO exceptions to this rule. The reason for this is that to carry more than eight passengers the vehicle has to be registered as a Public Service Vehicle (PSV) and have a certificate of Initial Fitness issued (COIF). However NONE of the American Limousines, (Including the 4 wheel drive,
Escalades, Hummers, Navigators, Excursions, etc) comply with the requirements and are therefore restricted by law to a maximum of eight passengers.

If any operator tries to convince a client otherwise, you should:-

1. Not book with them
2. Inform the police
3. Inform the National Limousine Association (UK) www.nlauk.co.uk
4. Report them as illegal operators to the Vehicle Inspectorate on 0870 60 60 440

It is in every ones interest to ensure that the paying public are protected from unscrupulous operators.

In the event of an overload, unlicenced limousine being involved in a serious or fatal accident, the repercussions could be drastic and the ultimate losers would be the customers and the bona-fide Limousine operators.
