Yes, and didn't take long to find out what the problem was, but just wondering what other people thought of it.
The original question seemed to have been:
Quote:
To establish whether respondents were aware of the differences between hackney carriages and private hire vehicles, they were asked whether they thought the statement “All taxis are allowed to pick up in the street or at a rank” was true or false. The survey identified that some x% of respondents did know the difference between hackney carriages and private hire vehicles.
Which makes a bit more sense (at least if you assume people think 'taxi' means
either HC
or PH).
However, the question at the top of the thread was in a Scottish survey, where the word 'taxi' specifically means a
public hire vehicle.
So someone obviously changed HC to read taxi because the survey was in Scotland, but didn't seem to notice that as a result the whole question became totally nonsensical.
Take it Halcrow a bit behind the curve with these things?
