The gondola of London.  Benjamin Disraeli, Lothair, 1870, re London cabs

 

 

May 10th.  Thank God for the rain which has helped wash away the garbage and trash off the sidewalks.  I’m workin’ long hours now, six in the afternoon to six in the morning.  Sometimes even eight in the morning, six days a week.  Sometimes seven days a week.  It’s a long hustle but it keeps me real busy.  I can take in three, three fifty a week.  Sometimes even more when I do it off the meter.  All the animals come out at night – whores, skunk pussies, buggers, queens, fairies, dopers, junkies, sick, venal.  Someday a real rain will come and wash all this scum off the streets.  I go all over.  I take people to the Bronx, Brooklyn, I take ’em to Harlem.  I dont care.  Dont make no difference to me.  It does to some.  Some won’t even take spooks.  Don’t make no difference to me.  Taxi Driver 1976 starring Robert De Niro & Jodie Foster & Harvey Keitel & Cybill Shepherd & Albert Brooks & Leonard Harris & Peter Boyle & Harry Northup & Martin Scorsese & Victor Argo et al, director Martin Scorsese

You talkin’ to me?  ibid.

For 350 years the black cab has been a British institution.  But with the rise of sat navs and minicabs including Uber now outnumbering black cabs four to one, what is it that sets the cabbie apart from the rest?  To join the cabbie’s exclusive ranks candidates must pass one of the hardest exams in the world  the Knowledge of London.  Every year 7,000 men and women take on the challenge taking an average of four years to pass this extraordinary test.  Only 30 survive to the end.  Every single one of the capital’s 25,000 streets and 100,000 landmarks must be learned in a remarkable feat of memory.  The Knowledge: The World’s Toughest Taxi Test, Channel 4 2017
