@RupertLowe10 @Keir_Starmer I wonder if you've ever visited, say, Japan, where station names, signs, etc., are generally printed in three or four languages? This is a weird hill to die on, Rupert.

Why are taxi lobbies so powerful that they can dictate transportation policy in so many cities, to the detriment of the general population?

[Joel Chan @kjoules]

Taxis, which make up 2.2% of all registered vehicles in Hong Kong (as of February 2024), made up 18.3% of all vehicles involved in traffic incidents in 2023.

2023 was also the worst year for taxis involved in incidents, with 2024 being on pace to be even worse
