VeeAny, I would agree with you, but having a commercail licence should mean you can earn money and ply the trade, just as a Taxi driver can charge for carrying passengers.
A Private Licence is the equivalent of a drivers licence, and yes a lot of Drivers out there are better then Taxi drivers, (As we all know)
But they shouldn't be allowed earn money from it, or what chance do Taxi drivers have in making a living?
