with the London Underground badge on, that seem to be cropping up everywhere at a rate of knots.

    my initial thought was its to take people to to medical appointments, things like that. Probably wrong.

    They're mini-cabs.

    Transport for London licenses them these days, it now sticks its logo in their windscreen to show its a genuine mini-cab as opposed to some dodgy geezer. That's what I'm assuming, anyway.

    The inspector is right in London now you can't just jump in your own knackered car and become a mini cab driver with a conviction list as long as your arm, you need to be registered, so it is a bit safer, they don't know where they are going of course...
