No, the passenger has to (somehow) find the other passages, that's not
the same thing at all (and completely impractical for out of London
destinations)


It could be done via an app on mobile phones. There are already similar
ways of locating people in an area with similar interests.

But don't make the mistake of assuming that your requirements are the
same as everyone else's.


So your only argument against all of this is that the driver shouldn't
be burdened with somehow putting together the relevant group of passengers?

Seems like a jobsworths argument to me - if the group is "dangerous" (by
whatever definition) it doesn't really matter who put them together as
long as the relevant legal framework on liability is in place.
