A minicab is a private hire vehicle available for pre-booked journeys. Unlike traditional taxis, minicabs cannot be hailed on the street; they must be reserved via a licensed operator, often through phone, apps, or online. Minicabs are widely used for short trips, airport transfers, and personal travel, offering affordability and convenience. They vary in size, accommodating individuals or groups. In many cities, operators and drivers are regulated to ensure safety and service standards, requiring proper licensing and insurance. Minicabs are distinct from black cabs or hackney carriages, which can pick up passengers without prior booking. Popular for their flexibility, minicabs play a vital role in urban and suburban transportation networks.
