I like the attitude of South African taxi drivers, because they know what they want, therefore, know what to do at the right time and right place. This group of critical thinkers never cease amazes me, they wake up every morning with an objective to reach a certain amount of money at the specific point of time.
To many other motorists they are dull and pompous because they are always overtaking other cars or want to pass through the red traffic lights but i think that, that is what keeps them going and at the end of the day commuters are at their various destinations on time. it does not only benefit commuters but it also brings food to the drivers family table.
Motorists should stop being in a cold war with taxi drivers as they do not intend to cause harm but to satisfy and thus, bring about happiness which we all need in life. The drivers income come from satisfying commuters by using all those intelligent strategies in the company, the road. They work on the road so the road is their environment and they know it better.
It's not only about you!

There is a lot of truth in this argument, but in my own belive SA taxi driver's should consider human beigs life before material staff (money).
ReplyDeletesomeone would say SA taxi drivers are either the best or the worst drivers on earth. i would say more worse... im just thinking about the many dents in every taxi.
