Black cab leaves road in A1M crash

Tuesday, 12 October, 2010 6:55 AM

A 70-year-old emerged unscathed but “shaken” after his black taxi flew off the A1(M) and into a ditch.

The cab left the northbound carriageway between junction 6, for Welwyn, and 7, for Stevenage, and ended up upside-down at around 7.30pm on Friday.

Police, ambulance staff and the fire service were all called to the incident but the driver was unhurt.

One of mine retired a couple of years ago at 74 ! and there was one a few years ago still driving taxis at 80 mind you he was really doddery I suppose it all comes down to wether you can afford to retire

easy for those millionnaire london cabbies not so easy for those of us out in the sticks flooded out with foreign drivers
