Alot of this is lack of confidence, not the taxis obviously, butI often see people teetering about on the hill, either up or down, looking scared stiff. Many have no idea of clutch control, thus I never come up close to anyone at Black Gate when the lights are at red.
Thurs this week some eejit held up the service bus, Wilson's bus and a queue of drivers both up and down, when we eventually got moving he came past red in the face and sweating. One woman said to me as we waited Can't I pop on there? I said feel free-- just mind the tram, the road is only wide enough for one vehicle at a time. She didn't go !
