i have only had just one close call with a cab driver, back road of the brunswick centre, where he turned in the hotel forecourt without a signal. i was a bit shaken by it. but he did ask if i was okay, and i said yes and replied my mum can take better corners than you and fabregas, which made him laugh and he was obviously a gooner..
i always make a point to acknowledge cab drivers on the road, i think on a whole they are very considerate.. they have a job to do and like all of us not perfect, cliveo has made a good point though, a sudden u-turn is what they do best when they see a fare and without thinking, give them space..
next cabbie you see give him a hug or just a friendly nod..
