10. You Confuse Taxis With Tanks
You can just push the door shut you know, it doesn't need to be slammed like you're auditioning to be the understudy for Thor. While we're on the subject of unnecessary force, the same principle applies when you're trying to close the boot. Taxis, in case you hadn't noticed, are not modelled on tanks. They're not based on the Batmobile either. So if the weather is so bad that your own car, or even a bus, can't make the journey then neither can a private hire. Now, kindly store this knowledge for the next time you're thinking about trying to book a ride when snow drifts and black ice have closed the roads.
