It's just the total lack of respect that I've always seen for other drivers on the road. I've had to slam on the brakes at 80 KM/H on the Bypass in North Bay because a cabbie decided that he wanted to make a u-turn... at speed. And u-turns are illegal on that highway. What a champ.
Or the one a few weeks ago that blatantly blew not a red-to-him/red-to-me traffic light but a red-to-him / green-to-me-by-far light and just about cost me the old car. No brakes, no horn... nothing.
Not all cab drivers are that bad... I've had a few good ones, especially when I fly home and get to the North Bay airport at like 1AM. Surprisingly, those guys are the best. They help me with my stuff (when I'm dead on my feet after 18+ hours of travel) and they get a good tip for their efforts.
