Uber confirmed the driver of the Ford Galaxy car was working for the minicab app at the time of the crash. ENDQUOTE Whatever weird and wonderful description might be made of the vehicle involved, a "taxi" it absolutely isn't.

I appreciate you are probably too dim to know the difference between a cycle and a motorcycle, but there is a clue in the name. -- Dave Dedicated to finding a cure for cycling. |
