London taxi drivers are rated best in the world

London taxis have been rated as the best in the world thanks to having friendly drivers who know their way around the city.

A recent study found that despite being more expensive than their foreign counterparts, travellers believe London cabs are best.

The London cabbies topped the charts as both the friendliest and most knowledgeable drivers in the world-wide study.

Cabs were markes in terms of cleanliness, value, quality of driving, knowledge of the area, friendliness, safety and availability.

Drivers in Paris and New York were said to have the rudest drivers… though they will probably bicker about it amongst themselves.
