This is to ensure you get drivers that normally work in Ripon and not elsewhere. If you dont mind who takes you, still choose one and later you can simply tick any driver when making each booking.
When you go to a different town, for example Selby where Ripon drivers wont work, you simply put a tick in the box "Any Driver" and the system will search for any driver on the Yorkshire Cabs Network.
