    Melbourne taxi drivers refusing to take fares under $15

    Dot, you are probably correct and I have over called it. One looks at the home ground with different eyes. Having said that, for all round performance they certainly rate: poor airport service, problems with small fares, NFI with respect to major MEL landmarks, driving ability, cheating...
