Hackney cabs are *most certainly public transport*. Everyone is
entitled to use them on payment of a regulated fare.

I don't see how having a regulated fare has anything to do with it. Buses
can charge what they like for any given journey.


Not in London they can't.

Even the most died-in-the-wool Oyster hater wouldn't say that the
unpredictable fares and frequent errors are quite *that* bad.
