It also begs the question, how on earth would you ev er know if you are within a taxi zone?Phxcdgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-15718627809799733302011-02-16T23:10:55.088+01:002011-02-16T23:10:55.088+01:00@Drummond LOOOOOOL

(shame I even did not notice that..., really feel I live under a rock sometimes).<br />I do not take many taxis anymore but I did a lot until recently. And I must say I got pretty well used to the white light system, even not so easy to see... But changing is better, I guess so. <br />Well, no, I'm sure I'll miss the previous white light system like a kind of nostalgy from old Paris, like in old movies... <br />Funny to see how a color can be related to a position : free (green) or not free (red)! Very easy pattern, with no doubt. <br />Thank you Eric for the tip.<br /><br />FloreAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-71196367958661874582011-02-16T12:18:57.294+01:002011-02-16T12:18:57.294+01:00Comme toi et beaucoup de gens je ne comprenais rie...Comme toi et beaucoup de gens je ne comprenais rien au système des taxis qui se trouve désormais simplifié !!! j'ai remarqué moi aussi ces lumières rouges mais je n'en vois pas souvent de verte ;-)<br />Bon, en même temps ce n'est pas trop grave car je prends les transports en commun ;-)marniehttp://quidnovimarnie.canalblog.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-65253943548899722552011-02-16T11:48:55.405+01:002011-02-16T11:48:55.405+01:00Paris taxis were so frustrating!
