Makers of London Taxi in administration

And you could always hail the taxi and cross the road yourself, then he can run three sides of a block or use an appropriate sideroad to turn around. Far more sensible. Before anyone says "but it might be dangerous to cross the road", it's unlikely to be safe to do a U turn on a road where it isn't safe to cross as a pedestrian. Do you have any statistics for the frequency of accidents caused by taxis making U-turns? Or is it, as I strongly suspect, a problem that exists only in theory? |
