# That's funny,
But so far, from 7 years of living in London and using illegal minicabs my friends and I have experienced:

- A sexual assult
- An arguement over £1 that resulted in a baseball bat being drawn on us
- A robbery at gunpoint
- A crash in a stolen car by a drunk 'minicab' driver (this resulted in us being accused by the police of stealing it while drunk after the driver ran off... not fun)
- Being given the hard-sell on class A drungs instead of being taken home.

All in all, I'd rather walk home these days, and wish death on illegal minicabs and thier scumbag drivers.

# yeah i'm still relatively new to living 'in' london...
i was threatened with a knife in nottingham, over my shitty mobile. it wasn't insured though, so didn't give him it(!?) he had gold teeth and everything.

good times.

# Well absolutely.
After the car crash incident, I never will take an illegal one again. I tried to lecture my friends on it, but they didn't listen, and then the other incidents occoured. They all agree with me now.

# Fair enough.
But no I haven't. The only time I have graced london with my presence was on a school trip when i was in primary 7.

# have you ever thought on not using illegal mini cab and getting one from a licenced place?

[edit]have you been taking class A drungs?

# And pray
Why do you keep taking them? I've lived here for 5 years and never bothered. You can ask any club to get you a real cab or a licensed one.

# you can ask, but do they do it?
I prefer contending with the nightbus losers.
And falling asleep and waking up in chipping barnet, again.

# I've only used a minicab once
it took over an hour to get from Hyde Park to Docklands at 3 in the morning. The driver tried to charge £120, pulled a baseball bat when we refused. Lucky for us we had a Rhodesian (he refuses to recognise Zim) called John with us, who promptly grabbed it from the driver and smashed all the windows while we legged it.
