Default TAXIS, the future

Late at night hailed taxi drivers will sometimes give a competitive
fixed fare, but are unlikely to do that in rush hour.


I have never come across a Hackney carriage driver who offered a fixed
fare within their area that wasn't more than what the metered fare
would be. Though the ones in Milton Keynes are particularly
disreputable, and the private hire operators generally of good quality,
which I guess is the reverse of the situation in London.
