Every P5 chauffeur is fully licensed private hire, insured and vetted — name, photo and number sent before the day.
This is a journey decided before you arrive: whether the driver watched the train, whether the price moved, and whether anyone is standing on the concourse at Birmingham New Street when you come off.
