1Maybe you can look at the concept of `relations` as explained here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/260441/how-to-create-relationships-in-mysql Otherwise, a more precise question would be welcome: what do you mean by "pass it to". If you're using PHP, you could easily get the vehicle_id (I presume) and add it into your next MySQL query... – achedeuzot Feb 02 '14 at 17:32

It depends on the language you want to use. But as we have only information that you are using MySQL
, you can use something like this
INSERT INTO cab_reservation (vehicle_number, other_columns, ... )
SELECT v.vehicle_number, ...
FROM vehicle v
WHERE v.vehicle_number = ...;
I suppose cab_reservation
has some sort of id as primary key and additional data.
