Did anyone hear that programme? No - but why was it a mistake, compared to any other minicab type firm? Because you're essentially hailing a cab on the street rather than pre-booking it. The fact that hail is via electronic means is neither here nor there. Its no different to if a minicab firm has its cars driving around waiting for messages on the radio to go pick up someone nearby. but isn't that what they do (subject to them actually having an empty cab available, of course)? tim |
