Taxi Please...Non-Smoking or Smoking?

Okay, so what is the deal with taxi drivers and their smoking? I mean..I think it is so disgusting when I am in the cab and I cant even breath. All I smell is the heavy duty disgusting cigarette stench all in the cab. I think its funny how the cab drivers all line up in front of the airport, just waiting for a flight to come in, and just like car sales men, they are hawks ready to hunt for a customer. However, when we do finally "CHOOSE" them as our driver, we are disappointed when we get into the cab. I have really no choice, how do I know which ones smoke or not? well they all seem to smoke, and I guess it comes down to which one smells less than others...? Still, you can not tell this by just looking at the driver and their cab from the outside..so how do you choose? You dont, you just go with whatever driver...

Just like you choose your hotel room,(non-smoking or smoking) I wish the same for choosing cabs...

well I just dont think its right when you are in someone's cab, and THEY want YOU to pay THEM, however you have to suffer this horrible smelly ride...

oh well,

But why do cab drivers all smoke??
