Otherwise how can a black cab stop halfway across a signalled junction in the middle of the road, on a corner, on double red lines in central london, blocking the traffic behind to pick up a passenger and some plods in a van nearby do absolutely bugger all? B2003 Do you know what a taxi is for? I take it you don't complain when a bus stops at a bus-stop? Bus stops arn't generally sighted on corners in the middle of a traffic light controlled junction are they you brainless ****wit? The whole world is a taxi-driver's taxi-stop (or at least, that bit of it which is within his licensed area). Stopping to pick passengers up is what taxis do. Passengers are capable of walking an extra 10 metres if the cap stops up the road in a safe position. B2003 Cap? |
