I had the worst service from any taxi driver ever when I was assigned an Atlas cab at the airport yesterday. The man seemed to want to fight with his passengers and anyone in his way on the road. He started the trip by reprimanding me for lack of manners for closing the door of the cab to hard -- then tailgated the traffic -- ridiculed my wife's suggestions about how to get to where we were going -- responded to a request to turn off the air conditioning aby opening the windows of the speeding cab wide. It was an unexpectedly stressful end to a long day of travelling and entirely gratuitous. For reasons of his own, the driver wanted a fight. I am pretty sure he found one before his shift was over. My wife and I just wanted to see the last of this very disturbed individual. I took down his taxi licence number and later phoned the complaint into the company. I don't know if any action was taken. The experience has left me very reluctant to phone for an Atlas cab again -
