Same here, neither have I, but the ones here have them. I reckon anyone can be one, you juts need to know where the famous sights are like big ben, then the tomtom does the rest, they are over complicating things with the exams.

Taxi driver here, don't use a sat nav and dislike seeing them in cabs, learning your patch should be a prerequisite for the job...but apparently that makes me a dinosaur

I'll watch or record it as I was having a conversation with a taxi instructor about it the other day. Interesting to see in practice

Part of the knowledge,was keeping the price of entry high,ie you have to put the time n effort in,keeping out the 'have a go's' who do so much to reduce rates in other jobs,closed shop so frowned upon these days
