Passenger Numbers in Preston Limos

With the restriction of eight passengers per limousine no matter what its size, the majority of limo hire companies follow this law and maintain the safety of their passengers and drivers and the good reputation of the industry.

However, there will always be people who disregard the laws and make their own decisions about what should and should not be done in their limousines. It is these operators which are not only giving the industry a bad name, but are also making it harder for legitimate operators to do business.

The same limo hire companies who transport more than eight passengers in their super stretch and SUV limousines are also doing so at a discounted rate, taking unsuspecting customers away from reputable limo hire companies and putting them into unsafe and unregulated vehicles.

Even if there are many limo hire companies who think the passenger limit is wrong, flouting it is not going to get it changed any faster, in fact it will probably have the opposite effect. If the limo hire companies who ignore the passenger limits put their efforts into getting the laws changed, the police and the VOSA are more likely to consider the proposals of a united and law abiding industry instead of one full of rouge operators making it hard for everyone else.

The current penalty for limousines found to be carrying more than the required number of passengers is £6,000 and two points on the chauffeur’s and the vehicle owner’s license so not only do the limo hire operators operate within the law to ensure the safety of their passengers, they also can’t afford to be caught out, or reported by a knowledgeable passenger riding in a crowded limousine.

So make sure you remember that if you are told by a limo hire company that they can take all 12 members of your bridal party in one limousine, ask them if the limo is registered as a Passenger Carrying Vehicle. More than likely it is not a PCV, and they will know they have been caught out, this simply tells you this is not the type of limo hire company you want to be dealing with.
