Default TfL Taxi Consultation to "kill" Uber

Yes, and the results in strange overseas cities can often be very
patchy.


The trouble with strange cities is you have no 'hang on a minute, that
doesn't make sense' function.

For example, 'satnav blunders' like Stamford Bridge (Chelsea) v Stamford
Bridge (battle of), Stratford v Stratford-upon-Avon, Newcastle under Lyme v
upon Tyne, Kingston (upon Hull), Leeds Castle, etc etc.


And Hampton Court in Islington instead of the Tudor palace.
