I even tell them to stop the incessant lane cutting and jumping, or tailgating. They dont like it but heck its my life..

Agree. And cab drivers need to understand aggresive driving does not necessarily equate more billable mileage. It makes it more stressful for other road users. Higher pay may not always result in higher performance. When we pay them better, we are in a better position to demand better service. And company can in turn invest in better training. And happy workers tend to do a better job.batgirl_cdn wrote:I think most of us can judge what erratic driving is. We aren't merely talking about incorrect signaling. Falling asleep, speeding, changing lanes dangerously, tailgating etc. are all examples of some bad driving that many of us have seen. There are lots of jobs in this world that may not be that great. People who clean bathrooms all day must not enjoy it, but does that mean they should do their job poorly? They have chosen to take a job and they receive payment for the job. A raise in pay doesn't instantly turn people into better workers and more service-oriented workers.
