At Forrest Rd on bike lane. Pull up ahead of taxi at red. I know driver can see me. Further evidence of this is him edging taxi forward. He guns away from lights alongside me then signals left and cuts across down Candlemaker. He then gives me a cheery finger as he goes down the hill. Another victory for moronic driving. Probably not as careful in his own car.!

Did you get a chance to read his number? Could be another muppet that needs highlighting to the licensing authorities before his deliberate stupidity injures someone?

There are indeed some awful taxi drivers. Tonight at Tollcross I saw one go through a red light so he could turn right through a no-right-turn sign.

Blooming taxi drivers, all they do is block bus lanes and jump red lights, they should be made to pay road tax and pass a test.... ;-)

Ta... Good comments :-) Didn't get number.
Just think this illustrates the 'pretend I didn't see you and then try to run you over' attitude. Gesturing at me was a bit of a giveaway!Posted 12 years ago # -
Would be good one for Darkerside's Questionnaire. Taxi number plate or Licence Number obviously handy. Some taxi drivers are pro-cyclist, well educated and kind.

Edinburgh taxi drivers, eh...
They're always up for some kind of conflict, but in my experience, they are nothing more than cowardly pack animals.
