Taxis that insist on driving at 10km/h below the posted speed limit. I assume this is because the meter counts time and well as distance and so they can charge more for the same trip

 

Oh jeez, that drives me nuts. It's waaay worse in Adelaide than anywhere I experienced in NZ too. And they'll sit beside each other on 2-3 lane roads. 

But you hit the nail on the head... It's only whenever there's a passenger in the cab.

I got one from the airport a couple of years ago (Uber is illegal here, still). Told him if he wasn't doing the same speed as the rest of the traffic, we would get out right there and he could do the 20 minutes back to the airport with no fare. He sped up.

I also laid a complaint because his check engine light was on and he shifted into neutral at every set of lights to stop the POS stalling.

Have only taken "corporate" type cars to the airport since... It's worth the extra $15  

Edit: Found the photos. Just remembered his interior light was hanging off too... won't bore you with that.

Good look for tourists though... ar$3holes
