An alternative taxi service

New blogger Xi Kultant proposes a transport system that is much more cost effective. From Heavy Downpour:

This morning Malta woke up in a heavy downpour... as as you may note everyone was blocked. it took me 1 hour to pass from fleur de lys and psaila street in birkirkara. When would the transport ministry decide to start doing something innovative in public transport and REALISES that the issue boils down to branding and perception in addition to decent service?

And how about a taxi service which can pick you up from home and take you back for less than Lm1?... pool the people...staff a customer care centre to co-ordinate taxis in the street and offer prompt service... and many people would start using it, especially that diesel and petrol now cost a fortune!
