Default Re: Good value second hand cars - COVID times, Falcon/Commodore tax

Why are there no age limits on taxis now? Is it so we can go full Havana?

The age limits were removed a few years back when Uber was legalised & the taxi industry was deregulated.

Anyone with a 16 year old Camry, or B-Series Wagon can buy a taxi meter & in-car camera, and set themselves up as a taxi driver after paying a couple of hundred bucks for a set of taxi plates.....

That's unreal. So you could get a taxi yellow AU skidder and just go for it?
