Taxi Driver Online

We've had this discussion before and no doubt will again but they say it's just as tiring sitting around doing nothing and waiting as it is working

Well that's OK then

I don't know if they do, but, I do know several drivers that do 75+ hours a week here

he means are they actually MOVING for 100 hours or just available?

I know plenty of drivers here who do second jobs,big deal.Quite a few firemen drive taxis part time.I do other work if its available and still work my cab.Tell you whats more tiring ,now sat twidling your thumbs on a rank in a cold january..

I only drive taxi 6 hours a day 5 days a week an I work at the takeaway 5 hours per day.
Yh its not like Im driving in the full 6 hours as Im on the rank an get a job like every 15-30 mins, last wednesday I started work at 10 I done a couple of jobs then I was waiting at da rank from 3 to half 5 I new I was going to b stuk der foever so I rang my driver up an he took over, its just how the trade works.

is duck on the menu?....

(aylesbury............duck............... )

I know what he meant

there arent many truckers who drive for the full entitled hours with taffic jams, loading/unloading, etc and there would be even less hackney drivers who got near the UK driver hours for driving but thier spreadover and "other work" would compromise thier hours, each move forward ona rank would stop/start thier breaks too

That must be why I see some drivers just taking the handbrake off and pushing the car along the rank.

no, thats a) to save fuel/clutch/starter wear and b) to get some excercise

Why would anyone want to report another person?

Do you think that you would pay less tax because of it?!

Do you think that your life would improve?!

Or is it more likely that you would want to buy your M.P another house by paying more tax ?

They have tried to turn this nation into snitches, and make no mistake you will not benefit by doing it.

One other point, I do not have a second or third job, and neither do I claim anything. If there was any justice in this world................then it is them who should stop robbing us.

Because many people are laughing at us tax-payers.

Or are people happy to work with benefit and tax cheats?
