Councillor Delme Bowen, Cardiff’s executive member for transport, welcomed moves to improve the look and response of drivers.

“We have hundreds of thousands of visitors and very often the first person they will meet is a bus or taxi driver. Drivers can act as ambassadors and it’s important to give a good welcome to Cardiff,” he said.



Is that in the job description now?

An alternative code for passengers will also go before the council’s public protection committee next week. It tells passengers to treat drivers with respect and to behave in a civil manner.

Awful isn't it, what with having to wear Armani suits, actually use the meter and refrain from being selective about which runs they take, I don't know how the lads in Cardiff would cope :lol:
