Q: What is the difference between a Taxi Stand and a Taxi Relief Stand?
A: A taxi stand is a pickup point for passengers. Taxi drivers are required to remain with their vehicles and be available to pick up fares. Taxi relief stands allow drivers to park their vehicles for up to one hour. This affords drivers the opportunity to leave their vehicles and take care of personal needs.
