Sorry other blocked.

Answer to Lone ranger. the problem with all isolated incidents of abus or inapropriate behaviour is that without further proof or witness it cannot go forward. This is the problem when the isolation and vulnerabilty of the taxi trade is taken advantage of.

This even reports of inapropriate drivers with passenger the police can only "keep an eye" on it until something more concrete comes up. Therefore, maybe by giving the opprotunity or reporting and recording experiences on-line some offenders may be identified because there is not just one but several saying the same thing. May spot repeat offenders against cabbies and repeat offenders of cabbies who may abuse their position. Just one thing which may come out of it.

Problem is not quantum physics. Wherever we are in the world we are in the same playground with the same personalities. And the same people who would take advantage of others either physically, mentally, financially emotionally or sexually. The problem is most is behind the bike sheds and not when or where anyoen else can see. But multiple reports of the same things may help it come to light and then safety of all cannot be ignored. And get rid of those who spoil it.

Don't want to get into common debates and arguements which end up in consentrique circles. Everyone has their own passion about their own safety. Need to go in one direction for safety for all or it ends up like that Monty Python Sketch where they are all vying as to who has had the baddest lot in life. End up in a shoe box in the middle of the M23 getting up befoe we go to bed. I am sure you know the sketch i mean.


I apologise to the adminstrator for the downward turn of the other post. We will keep it on track and not cause offense.
