Want to become a MPT driver?
To become a fully accredited multi-purpose taxi (MPT) driver, you must complete the following steps:
- Qualify for your T extension to be a taxi driver.
- Attend a short introductory session with the MPT Coordinator to find out about the service and whether it will suit you.
- Spend 2 days in a MPT with a specially-trained MPT driver/mentor, who will show you what the job involves.
- Successfully complete a two-day MPT training course (approved by the Department).
As a MPT driver, you have access to standard taxi fares and group bookings however, your first priority must always be wheelchair work.
