I did OK last night. Ironically dropping at St David's terrace behind MET EIREANN.

Yes, it was lashing, but no snow up to 05.00 when I decided to call it a night.

Ha, I even got a 20-dollar tip off a Sherman. Who couldn't find Lorcan Road from San-sans, so I dropped him around for free.

He then said can I give you a 20-dollar tip? I said why of course! 8)

B in Toyota Automatics/Hybrids is Engine Braking. It's designed to prevent excessive coasting when descending hills under braking... hence I guess it probably increases control over the vehicle in snow/ice also.
If it doesn't have a roof sign and door stickers it's not a taxi.
