A Kinder, Gentler Cabbie 1

In an effort to get rid of surly taxi drivers, you will have to be able to pass a 15-minute conversation test to get a Taxi License in the UK. Topics of conversation will include things such as their favorite places and would be mixed up so the drivers can't simply answer in a "parrot fashion." Sajid Hussain, 35, manager of Walsall Radio Cars said, "A lot of taxi drivers can do their job properly but they may not be particularly well spoken. Obviously it is important they are polite and can talk to customers and keep them happy but many don't communicate well, although I have never had a complaint about drivers being rude." I don't care what the demeanor of my cabbie is, as long as he doesn't drive like he's playing Crazy Taxi.
