Which of the following is NOT a requirement for Taxi and FHV drivers?

Owning the vehicle used for driving is not a requirement for Taxi and For-Hire Vehicle (FHV) drivers. This is because drivers can operate vehicles that are either owned by themselves or leased from a taxi or FHV company. Many drivers choose to lease vehicles as it can reduce the financial burden of purchasing a vehicle outright, allowing them to work while having access to appropriate vehicles for their services.

In contrast, having a valid driver's license, passing a background check, and completing required training courses are all essential requirements for drivers in this industry to ensure safety, compliance with regulations, and a standard of service. These requirements contribute to the overall integrity and professionalism expected from drivers in the taxi and FHV sectors.
