Overview
You are a taxi driver and you pick up a young woman who appears to be intoxicated. She is slurring her words, and her speech is unsteady. She tells you that she has been out with friends and that she needs a lift home.
You are concerned about her welfare and you ask her if she is okay. She tells you that she is fine, but you can tell that she is not. You decide to take her to the nearest hospital, where she can be checked over by a doctor.
This is just one example of a situation where a taxi driver could play a vital role in safeguarding a vulnerable person. And with our Safeguarding for Taxi Drivers course, you will learn your responsibilities as a taxi driver regarding safeguarding.
