In his written judgement Ouseley concluded that, «A
taximeter, for the purposes of Section 11 of the Private Hire Vehicles (London) Act 1998, is
not a device which receives GPS signals in the course of a journey, and forwards GPS data to a server located outside of the vehicle, which calculates a fare that is partially or wholly determined by reference to distance travelled and time taken, and sends the fare information back to the device.»
