How does the whole taxi thing work? Do you have to pay the council or whoever for each fare you take?

If they suspect you of taking fares without declaring is it the DOT have fitted it?

if you have switched it off they know you found it! or lost it, but i bet you have another on there this time hidden a bit better.
ill give ya £5 for it tho
switch it one and send to me on isle of wight, lol, thats would fook them up

a insurance company ( if it them ya claiming from for whiplash) would get a PI to tail you to try and catch you out, or it may be the wrong cab thay stuck it on

what ever it is its not a joke, knowones gunna put that on there for a laugh, have you tried the sim in a phone?

Just a thought, have you tried putting the sim card in a mobile phone ? You never know, somebody might try and call it......(to download information etc)

Ive never heard of anything like this happening before? surely if its legal, its an invasion of privacy? so is someone trying to tell you something? cant believe it has a sim card in it too, weird.

Use the sim in a phone, call another mobile to find the number, and then you might be able to find something from there - but definately keep a record of it.

Then put the sim back, leave it all switched on and see who comes knocking at the door to get their kit back

I'm quiet a paranoid person normally but finding something like that on my car would probably send me mad!!!!

I like the attach it to a lorry plan!

Or better still a train!
