Do we really want taxi drivers who assault passengers that object to
being driven through red lights?

Am I odd because I think any respectable company would sack him
anyway for beating up a customer?

Here's an idea: take down the details of any taxi driving dangerously and
report them (anonymously if necessary) to your local council regardless of
whether you are a passenger or not.
