Man I hate Taxi Drivers

Is it me... or are Taxi drivers pretty much the scum of the earth? Lowest form of life around? I remember driving in Toronto and finding them the worst thing on the roads, well just os you know, it is the same in Tokyo. The most interesting Taxis I have been were in South Korea. Basically I think that they were the cheapest too, but each one of them drove white knuckle and like a professional F1 driver. Except the car is not an F1 car.
