Cite please.

Cite please that a minicab company *does* arrange insurance?

We offer fantastic taxi fleet insurance policies for any fleet
size between 3 and 500 cars and are able to cover a mixed fleet
of both vehicle and driver credentials and experience.

And it's not just for vehicles the operator owns:

We will look more favourably at a taxi fleet policy if the taxi
fleet drivers own their own vehicles and the cover is taken out
for the owner only to driver their vehicle.

The situation with Uber has reportedly brought these policies into
the glare of publicity - covering the hire and reward supplement for
all the drivers/cars when on duty, irrespective of who owns the car.

Uber does not have such a policy in the UK.

Yes, that's the problem.

It does in the US of course.

Why "of course"?
