Normally driven by people who don't give a monkeys about the vehicle they are in

Most of the vehicles we maintain are owner driver vehicles and it is in their best interest not to drive as you describe. At the end of the day they work out efficient ways of getting from A to B Also if they damage something they are the ones who pay to repair it so it is their best interest not to drive recklessly. and the council here are very strict with the taxi test (most are on a Hackney plate) requiring two test a year and they usually require two MOT tests a year. all this is only from my experience and appreciate that your experience may differ from mine

Having been in the business I've never known a Taxi driver who doesn't think of the car as a tool & that's it, they keep the inside spic & span but the mechanicals they don't give 2 hoots about & paid drivers are even worse.

I think the most interesting fact about tyres is the name of the company who makes more tyres than anyone else. Anyone know the answer to that? It's not a joke, it's genuine and quite amazing to discover who this actually is.

I'll park that here for a while and see if anyone can come up with the answer. NO GOOGLING!

Oh very clever LOL
