Because they are point to point transportation for the elderly and disabled.
- sails 7y agoVery interesting point, it seems that black cabs are specifically required to cater for the disabled [0]. I wonder what the utilisation of taxis by elderly and disabled looks like as a percentage of the total rides. I think finding some mechanism that reduces congestion while catering for this would be attainable.
