As a passenger injured in a cab or taxi you are entitled to compensation irrespective of fault or blame.
If you are involved in an accident and if you are able, please make a note of the vehicle type and registration together with the licence number of the taxi which should be displayed prominently for you to see. Accidents in a taxi , like passenger claims can be relatively straight forward given that it cannot be your fault and most insurers will settle a passenger claim even before liability for the actual accident has been established.
Smooth Top Tip
Hackney cabs can be hailed from the street. NEVER get into a private taxi unless you have pre booked it because the driver will not be insured. It doesn’t mean you cannot make a claim but it will be more complicated and you don’t need the additional aggravation.
