I can see from you submission history that you are German.
In the US, unless you study history at private institutions, we received a very sanitized version of history. We saw more pictures of the camps and soldiers lovingly kissing women when victory was declared.

And this is where I request to get off at the next stop.

Hey thanks ... I had this idea in my head that it was something like, honk once you can go, honk twice I'm coming through, hold down the horn, I don't know ... I did a project down the street from Penn Station. All I heard was horns.
On a different note, I live in a small city in NH and to go two miles from the bus station to home costs me $20 not including tip. Competition is a hell of a drug I guess.

My question for you:
I've done a fair amount of time in NYC cabs, more in Boston cabs. A large percentage of you scare the living daylights out of me ... e.g. accelerating rapidly into traffic while another cab is pulling into a lane, basically just accelerating really fast.
So the horn, is there some code, like if you beep twice it means to the other cab, hold on, I'm coming through (I guess I'm asking if you talk to each other through your horns)
Another question, in Boston, I used to take cabs during rush hours and they seemed to hate me ... my trip was only a mile and I was going from a place near a major hotel to train station ... a couple of them said they'd rather being driving someone to the airport instead of sitting in traffic to take me a mile.
Do you have thoughts on this?
Cheers.
