Now, I can understand the rationale for this, from Mr. Mayor and Councillor Meggs:
Vancouver taxi customers should experience quicker, cheaper trips on congested routes, says the Vancouver Taxi Association, now thatcity council has approved a one-year trial to allow taxis to travel in bus lanes.
The pilot program was an election commitment by Mayor Gregor Robertson, who was responding to a long-standing call for such action from taxi owners, who point out that similar rules are in place all over the world…
But, I for one, am a wee bit nervous.
Especially given that I try commute by bike as much as possible.
I mean, does this mean that taxi-drivers will be racing up curb lanes, swerving in and out, even more than ever before?
Is that even possible?
