But not a lot.
Once the taxi moves, the bus then moves forward twenty yards, in most cases.
But I do think that taxis should not be allowed to stop at bus stops, which
can prevent access or departure.
Not that there's a law in the world that will stop a taxi driver stopping
for a fare, even a fare stupid enough to flag down a taxi at a bus stop, and
make no move away from it.
And it would be totally unenforceable.
