Perhaps those that have issues so often don't have the right attitude themselves? Saying hello when you get in a cab and giving instructions politely and saying please and thank you goes an awful long way.

but on a serious note its probably just me with my great luck of always running into the bad ones I guess
I did however run into a very decent cabbie today so I guess I was wrong, not ALL of them are that bad
But for the poll to end up on a new site, I wonder who participated in it then? Maybe just tourists?

and yes totally agreed on the saying hi bit, its like entering someones office. The first thing you do is smile and say hi
