Advice for disabled taxi passengers

Taxi drivers have a responsibility to:

• carry the passenger while in the wheelchair, and provide reasonable assistance to enable the passenger to get into or out of the vehicle
• carry the wheelchair if the passenger chooses to sit in a passenger seat and help to load the wheelchair into or out of the vehicle
• help to load the passenger's luggage into or out of the vehicle
• make sure that the passenger is carried in safety and reasonable comfort
• not charge extra for any of the above

It is a criminal offence if drivers do not carry out the above duties unless they have an exemption.
