Two ways to deal with toss pots like this,use the power of licensing officers or take matters into hand yourself. |

Rank etiquette Went out of the window a long time ago in the East Riding On the weekend it can best be described as Fred Karno's Circus generally a bunch of needy and greedy Not helped by the deregulation of Plates. I have a 8 Seater WAV And generally the most are Saloon Cars on the Rank. OK I accept some people don't like getting in Mini Buses My best jobs are later on groups to the district Villages My Cage does get very rattled by the following Driver's at the Back of Rank smoking eyeballing Punter's who they pick up Leaving spaces between cars on the rank picking up at the back And finally cars behind me sending job forward if its not going far

( i usually do )
