Yes, but that's a personal viewpoint about how you think taxi drivers should be dressed.
I mean, if the market was truly competitive, you would never get away with that standard of dress, surely?
I know certain elements of the London trade, and this applies to minicabs as well,(and indeed throughout GB) look like they found a hedge on the way in and done the deed.
But the vast majority of taxi drivers dress themselves just fine.
I feel comfortable walking into best hotels to use the little boys room (almost worth waiting for some of the loo's in there!) but I would feel a prat, dressed in trousers, shirts and tie, picking up Mrs Jones outside Sainsburys in Islington with her shopping going to the Marquis housing estate.
I think we should be more concerned with the state of our taxi's, I clean mine every two days regardless of the weather, the inside is brushed daily and the windows cleaned daily, and yes, i replace the 'pine tree' airfreshner often.
That, acompanied by good service is what customers value over and above a tie.
