what happens when someone tries to call your bluff

" so wheres the camara then driver you cant film me "

seen it done you get more agro
but for the most the sticker will calm most down but no good if you need evidance of a robbery or attack etc ( not so rare nowadays )

its proved its the best deterant around for taxis or private hire

(due to the small no of bad customers)

if every taxi and private hire car used them we would all stop being targets as a trade


sorry for using "we" as some bods on here dont class us as doing the same

The best thing to do is agree with whatever the passenger say's, if they slag off the police-agree, if they slag off a political party-agree, if they slag off your football team-agree. It make's life alot easier, just think to yourself, "they will be out of the car soon, and I will have my money".

The best thing for self defence is a good pair of trainer's!! run away, discresion is the better part of valour.

I did 8 years in the para's, and 8 years as a doorman and I have had more agg being a taxi driver(although it is mainly brain damage, p*ssed up bird's, aggresive bloke's etc) at least when I was in the army I had a gun to shoot them with!!

You will find the job a right eye opener, you see a side to the public you never knew existed!!

Good luck, and by the way, never belive anything a taxi driver say's!!

The fire extingisher is a great form of self defence, hit em on the head with it and if the police say anything, just say you thought thier head was on fire!
