The driver had his doors locked but eventually opened the window and
spoke to me. I told him the destination (a local road) but he refused to
take them unless I was going too.
I then took the couple to the third cab (no driver in the second) who
told me I should take them to the first.
I explained the situation and he took them but said he couldn't
understand why the first had refused.
And yes, I did take the guy's number but I'm not sure if I ought to do
anything about it or not.
I know it's probably too late, but did you get the number of the 3rd taxi
who directed you back to the 1st one as a possible witness to the event?
I suppose his motive for not taking them was because he could be accused
of jumping the queue so to speak.
As others have suggested I would report the event, is it possible to get
your employer (LUL or a TOC?) to do it on your behalf as you were on duty
at the time?
Did the blind passengers managed to get to their destination without any
further problem?
