Title: why is there not more young taxi drivers in Ireland?
Post by: taxi1990 on June 10, 2019, 11:18:46 pm
I think i heard before drivers aged between 20-30 is only 2%.

most drivers i know are 45-70 years old.

insurance for somebody under 30 would = to the rent on a small shop ,plus the threat of  self drive cars means no future .Big Dommos father use to be a gas lamp lighter none of his sons followed him into the busines.

Was up doing the NCT today,and whilei was there,I just went around to the SGS crowd to ask advice on wether or not  my car would pass the suitability test. Lucky I went aroundto,because the two things I asked his advice on,he told me  it would have no chance of passing.I actually asked him in a joking way,if I put a mytaxi sticker over the offending problem would it pass,but he was quite serious in his reply when he said to me that he would advise me not to do that.

self driving cars are decades away most likely, i wouldnt let that put you off starting a taxi business. even if you got 10 years you would have made enough to start another business.


wrong thread dalymount? ::)

I take it that it was the paint scratch by your diesel cap that you were thinking of putting a sticker over.
What was the other problem ?

No its worse then that.the problem is,that a long time ago because I have a habit of over filling the tank,the deisel runs down the outside into where the bumper separates from the top part,and over time this caused it to get worse.I brought it to a place and the guy was making a song and dance about how much it would cost to put it right.I stupidly let someone I trusted drill it together using a few screws and in fairness it looks shite.the point is though,yer man in SGS was very clear that I should defiantly not try to disguise it.

If you had torn upholstery and you put seat covers it would it pass ?
It’s kinda the same thing. Your disguising the seats also.

Stick up some pictures Daly so we can laugh and give you some suggestions.

Also I don't think I've ever put more than 40 quid in me tank from empty.Makes the car feel sluggish.That's a lot of extra weight to be driving around with.

Country is near full employment as well so better-paid, easier jobs out there.

Read a piece in the paper the other day that the construction industry can't get enough 'men' to drive big diggers.  Jobs were allegedly paying 50k+.  The industry spokesman said they were thinking of hiring 'women' and 'retired people'.  It didn't clarify if retired women could apply?

^^^^^^That's interesting I never heard of that..but I drive a bleeding Toyota... it would probably still go if I put Heineken Zero into it.

I think my Prius has some sort of bladder in the petrol tank to keep the vapours in the petrol.Dont really understand it.

About the OP why would anyone want a job like this where you pay the same money as a decent mortgage just to go to work.350 a week plus fuel is a big ask when they can get decent money doing something else.

it is a great job for meeting women, if you are on a night out you might talk to 2 or 3 women maybe, if your lucky you might pull one of them. if you are driving all day how many women will you carry? plus if you are driving a taxi you will be sober not pissed slurring your words repeating yourself with drink spilled down your shirt.

I'm not talking about when they are on a night out, sometimes you meet someone and they start texting you about meeting up for a coffee etc that's the same as meeting someone in an office you work in. most of the time I tell them I'm not looking to see anyone, never go into house parties while I'm working.

Hal, an all time classic just for you, your going to luv it.

Anyway this Aulone got married and had 13 children, unfortunately her husband died.

She got married again and had another 7 children and unfortunately the 2nd husband died.

And guess what she then got married for a 3rd time and had 5 children and yes the 3rd hubby died unfortunately.

So after finally having 25 children the poor old doll died herself.

At the funeral mass the priest prayed for her and thanked the lord for such a lovely woman and said they're finally together.

One of the mourners quietly asked her friend sitting beside her:
" Do you think he's talking about the 1st,2nd or 3rd husband" ?


Wait for it



















The Friend replied
"No I think he's talking about her legs"   rofl  rofl  rofl

Probably doesn't matter wit prius
The owl diesels pumps we'r cooled by diesel then it wen back to the tank an the tanks heated up..heated diesel burns better .. In cooler conditions the differ between the heat in the air in the tank and the outside air causes condensation that had to be drained at regular intervals... Also on the filter there was a water / sludge trap ya had to drain.....
