The cabbies' fault no doubt... They are by far the worst drivers on the roads in this city. They are a menace to both cyclist, pedestrian and other motorists. Two days ago a cab almost hit me as I was riding my bicycle home as it failed to stop at a stop sign, and today, a different one ran a red light while I was on foot crossing the street.

we hate cabs when we're not inside them. when we're outside of a cab, we curse their aggressive driving. when we're inside, we curse the driver for not going fast enough, for not making it through that yellow light.

the cab must have been doing something funny because it got dragged into the streetcar-only right of way there on spadina. but to be fair, i've seen both good and bad cab drivers, and good and bad ttc drivers. you can't paint everyone with the same brush. i also respect guys for driving cabs, since it's a tough and dangerous job, and one reserved mostly for immigrants.

i like to imagine that the cab tried to pass the streetcar on the inside, jumping the curb on the island. there should have been cardboard boxes there, or a fruit stand.
