>> How are Black Cab drivers vetted?
Enhanced CRB check, every three years.
>>Is the procedure the same for Uber drivers?
The requirement is the same, but the procedure is very different. For black cabs the cabby has to submit the check to TfL, for Uber, as a self employed driver you just need to tick a check box to say you have one. Uber dont maintain a record or make random vetting checks..
In use, the black cab has a license on the outside, and the drivers photo and license displayed inside. The Uber has a dent on the outside and any old bloke inside.
Lets be honest tho, the chances of you having an issue using either is remote.
