Gatvol with taxis!

Thu, 3 May, 2012

I am gatvol with taxis in town who think they can drive just the way they want to and not care about other drivers in town. The taxis drive in the wrong lane at the robots just to get out in front fast so that they don\'t have to wait anther 3min to drop off their passengers. They drive next to each other in one lane not caring for cars who want to park or reverse out of parkings or even simply just to turn a corner. Where are the traffics for the taxis? They just want to watch motorists. What about the state that most of the taxis are in? Can't the taxi industry hire responsible drivers? Wait and see what accidents are on the way if they don't get stopped soon.
