VPNs do not secure you in any way now of course. Actually it's a bit stupid using a VPN to be honest with you because that's face it all of your traffic goes down the same tunnel down the same pathway and then hey who likes to buy your data? Yes now you're getting it if the government wants your data they have it all in one place they can just ask nord VPN for your data. Let's not forget the fact that there are many other ways of tracking you a VPN does not protect you from anything.
Being a cabbie I get bored & annoyed sometimes getting stuck in traffic ,however I appreciate your passion sharing your experience with people and seeing my daily routine through different lenses ....Thanks Tom & keep them coming
If you're worried about grease and whatnot from food bags getting on your seats, you might want to have a dish cloth or two with you so that people can put their bags onto those instead.
Thanks for the upload Tom really look forward them!! Don’t worry about shitty drivers I got beep at yesterday for stopping to let a blind woman across the street 🤦. ✌️❤️ always!
The taxi driver in North Audley Street made me laugh. A black Cab driver had a go at me the other day when I pulled over to drop a customer of in South Audley street.
When I hit Belgrave Square, if grosvenor crescent full up go down to Chapel Street and left grosvenor place,works 90% of time.sometimes sticking to the cotton don't do you any favours.
Tom you could have come in from glamis road to access that part, but you have to come out the same way so you don’t cross the bus gate. But if she didn’t specify a house number before than I can see how that could happen.
Hi Tom, I see a lot of cabs with decals/ vinyl advertisements on them. Is it the individual drivers' decision whether to have these on their cabs, or is it a outside decision made by tfl or a 3rd party. What benefits are there for the cabs/ drivers with these on?
It’s up to the owner of each taxi to decide whether to have adverts on the cab or not, but they don’t necessarily have much control over which adverts they get if they choose to have them.
i wonder what is the longest trip you have ever been asked to do. i asked same question to a Cabbie in Liverpool and he said a bloke jumped in with a bag and asked to be taken to Aberdeen airport. he had to get a helicopter out to the oil rigs in the north sea. he paid but cabbie wouldn't tell me how much. some trip Eh?
7:18 you did not mention the centre Arch of Admiralty Arch is only suppose to be used by the Queen/King to drive from the Mail to Trafalgar Square. Hence the Royal coat of arms above the arch. So the Americans should feel like Royalty going through the middle arch. But I did not know the fact about Nelsons Fleet so your video's are educational.
Nelsons fleet. When i did the knowledge some 16 years ago, i spent far to long looking for that point, up and down the mall like a yo yo. About to give up looking when a i ask a passing cabbie, hey mate, im looking for nelsons fleet, he then pointed up at the lamp posts.
Besides being in the correct lane, surely there would be less bottlenecks since people would be far more adaptable and spread out over the possible routes?
Always makes me laugh seeing taxi drivers complain about other taxi drivers pulling in. You should see the shambles every night in Horseferry Road when the guys go to the Italian restaurant by the bus stop near MI5 for their food. Their parking is terrible.
I don't know how you drive around in the course of a shift and worry if you have taken a job of another cabbie? I'm assuming it's because you're reasonably well known and fear the backlash? Really at the end of the day is it that big of a deal if you took that fare at 13:53 in this video? Win some lose some.
If you are going into the North/South Colonnade in the Canary Wharf site, there’s a barrier you have to pass through. Taxis generally pass through but they can stop you and swab the steering wheel/check the vehicle if they feel like it.
@@TomtheTaxiDriver I once thought I was getting ripped off in a taxi in Amsterdam. I ended up accusing him of trying to kidnap me. Don't do drugs folks.
watching your videos I'm struck every time just how badly behaved cyclists and electric scooter riders are. Traffic lights, nope; pavements yep; obey any laws nope
I am surprised about Wapping High Street. I thought you black cabs would’ve been allowed down there I can understand Uber wankers, not allowed, black cab cycles and buses. Really thought you would.

video idea💡 ... Driving the entire monopoly board in order from old Kent road to mayfair
ua-cam.com/video/K9KNc3GVeOk/v-deo.html a example I found .. but done really poorly
I love how you leave all the bad scooter, bike and Uber footage for us but never draw attention to it….just “I’ll leave this here”
@@abdullahmohammed2091 send him a letter and im sure he will be happy to join you and film it.....

How on earth you remember this and respond is incredible
Honestly so excited every time you post, love love love this content. Get to see London from a totally different point of view
Nice to see your skin has cleared up so much from your previous videos! glad to see you getting better mate
Thank you 😊 Lymecycline. although when I finish the course, it soon comes back. 😔
@@TomtheTaxiDriver I had the same issue until I took a 6 month course of accutane which finally got rid of it.
The resolution of this taxi game is amazing.
Another brilliant video!! Love these ‘At work’ videos! Merry Christmas mate 🎄
Love this newly found channel. I get lost in a phone box so watching you finding your way around London is amazing!
Tom I'm so proud of you bro. Long time subscriber from America. I love your content. You've grown so much!
Love the guessing destination game, I always play local or yokel.
If you're worried about grease and whatnot from food bags getting on your seats, you might want to have a dish cloth or two with you so that people can put their bags onto those instead.
This is the best vid format imo, thanks tom
Merry Christmas Tom, hope you have a good one, keep the videos coming!!
I think it would be a good idea to see how much work you can get in the suburbs and make it a video.
This is a great little series.
Amazing video as usual Tom. Have a great Christmas! 🎅
Thanks for the upload Tom really look forward them!!
Don’t worry about shitty drivers I got beep at yesterday for stopping to let a blind woman across the street 🤦. ✌️❤️ always!
The taxi driver in North Audley Street made me laugh. A black Cab driver had a go at me the other day when I pulled over to drop a customer of in South Audley street.
It’s like me complaining that a bus has to stop at a bus stop 😂 or a bin lorry collecting bins. Nature of the vehicles ahah!
@@TomtheTaxiDriver just walked up North Audley Street and seen the same thing happen again
Ouch on the credit card payment not going through but eventually it does. Tom have a great Christmas bud
When I hit Belgrave Square, if grosvenor crescent full up go down to Chapel Street and left grosvenor place,works 90% of time.sometimes sticking to the cotton don't do you any favours.
Great video as always, and fantastic editing, too!
That Grosvenor Crescent closure seems to be the bane of a Cabbie's life at the moment😒😒
It’s open now
That Nord vpn plug was slick 🤣
Tom you could have come in from glamis road to access that part, but you have to come out the same way so you don’t cross the bus gate. But if she didn’t specify a house number before than I can see how that could happen.
Waited for this for a bit. Tom enjoy your holiday period.
Tom your videos are so addictive, learning lots from you mate. Hopefully I’ll wave to you if I see you on the road as you live near me. Stay safe.

It’s finally here and I’m so excited
hope we get part 5 soon :)
Great insight as always Tom, thankyou.
Can't wait for part 5

It’s been a while! Great watch! 👏🏽
Have you ever actually taken anyone from Manor house station to Gibson square?
I absolutely love your city Tom 👍
Love your channel
Absolutely love these vids pal
Nice one Tom. Good video of your shift
Brilliant, only 1 “wiggle” though 😂
Not much a wiggle day haha
The audio sounds like it’s been slowed down slightly.
Might be a frame rate issue with studio footage 🤪. Much deeper voice
Love these videos the most, legend!
Just discovered your channel! Love your stuff! Happy holidays from Holland! 🎄

Great add. Made me laugh 😆
Tom, I'm a coach driver, so I must be seeing your taxi cabbie all the time in Central London. 😆 🤣 Hope your well 👍
brilliant again tom regards.
enjoying channel, i work for the other lot, but I leave central London to the experts.
great channel
Rock on Tommy entertaining interesting video Merry Christmas 🤶
Merry Christmas Tom! Love the videos and its always really interesting to hear your thoughts in the voice overs! Keep it up!
Nelsons fleet.
When i did the knowledge some 16 years ago, i spent far to long looking for that point, up and down the mall like a yo yo.
About to give up looking when a i ask a passing cabbie, hey mate, im looking for nelsons fleet, he then pointed up at the lamp posts.
Did the other taxi driver get passed?, yes, so what's his problem?🤣
So funny Ha Ha Ha Your analogy for Nord VPN, it is like being able to drive around without having to watch out for cyclists! LOL
Great video mate - merry Xmas to you and yours :)
Great video 📹 👍
Well done
Theyve take the cycle lane out of euston underpass? About time
Was it one that was too disconnected from other cycling-suitable lanes and paths to actually be practical?
Do you think if that every driver had the knowledge it would make traffic better or worse and same for your job?
Traffic would be far better, everyone would know what lane to be in 😊
Besides being in the correct lane, surely there would be less bottlenecks since people would be far more adaptable and spread out over the possible routes?
Hi Tom, how long would you normally wait for a job before moving on?
Would love to know the fair charge for each trip also! Great videos!
What do you do if someone can't pay at all?
Always makes me laugh seeing taxi drivers complain about other taxi drivers pulling in. You should see the shambles every night in Horseferry Road when the guys go to the Italian restaurant by the bus stop near MI5 for their food. Their parking is terrible.
THIS IS FOOD drinks are very nice
Maybe a stupid question, but why are you allowed to follow the bus lanes, yet are denied using that bus lock?
I know, crazy isn't it?
It sounds like you have a bit of a cold at the start of this video Tom
Yea listen to the ad integration, I mention it there
@@TomtheTaxiDriver ah sorry the volume was muted on my phone which I didn't notice until I past that point 😅
Do you only drive in the central parts of London or do you go to the outskirts of London and towns around?
You say apps what do you use Twitter is there a group or perosn that lets taxis know what’s happening
Where is part 5 of 5?
Here… Friday Working in London

should tell us how much you earn for the trips
The amount of cyclists jumping red lights you need eyes in back of your head
Where did you go in Italy? 🤩
Is it true if ur caught on ur phone u will loss your taxi lic with the new law
Under tfl’s 6 point ruling, yes
What's the security checkpoint on the roundabout you mention?
If you are going into the North/South Colonnade in the Canary Wharf site, there’s a barrier you have to pass through. Taxis generally pass through but they can stop you and swab the steering wheel/check the vehicle if they feel like it.
Y do the knowledge when u have great sat navs now
You can’t be a black cabbie without the knowledge
Nice video.
I'm sure you are a good guy but I never use black cabs as I have been ripped off so many times!
Ripped off? Not in a London cab. This is why I made the channel, to dispel these myths
@@TomtheTaxiDriver I once thought I was getting ripped off in a taxi in Amsterdam. I ended up accusing him of trying to kidnap me. Don't do drugs folks.
does anyone do 20 down park lane
I do 40 until I reach the speed camera
same here both sides its ridiculous @@boxinggloves1699
watching your videos I'm struck every time just how badly behaved cyclists and electric scooter riders are. Traffic lights, nope; pavements yep; obey any laws nope
Great video as usual! Can never get enough of these! Have a great Xmas and New Year .... stay safe, and see you on the other side!
I remember watching the Chanel 4 doc! Always wondered if the lad in the clip (Everton) I think, passed the test ????
I am surprised about Wapping High Street. I thought you black cabs would’ve been allowed down there I can understand Uber wankers, not allowed, black cab cycles and buses. Really thought you would.
Have to enter from another place then they are allowed down there
@@russldntaxi like I say I am well surprised black cabs are not allowed down that all the time.
