EDITOR, The Tribune.

The motoring behaviour of the numerous new mini-taxis is something to behold.....zipping through traffic swerving from one lane to the next...running the red light, basically questions should they have been given a Taxi Licence?

Editor, these vehicles are mostly the Datsun Mini-bus vehicles. Today you see many rather than few.

A swarm of them — how many did Transport license? Was there any testing? Was there any instruction course for the drivers and how a Taxi is to operate?

Nassau roads are very quickly reaching saturation point.... over the past few years we saw the flood of the $3-4,000.00 licensed on the road ex-Japan vehicle flood the roads, no issue everyone has the right but....the drivers simply have no road sense. Weekends where do all those self-drive come from?

Another sore point is the drivers’ disrespect for pedestrian crossings..... if the oncoming driver sees a person standing on a pedestrian crossing Road Act says You Are To Stop, hell no increase speed and flash past.... Saw a near miss many times on West Bay and near Doctors on Shirley, you put your life in your hands. Drivers show respect, please.
