There are many types of drivers. Some are calm, some are annoying, and some are dangerous. The other type is a taxi driver. Those drivers have one special thing about them: they never heard about traffic laws.
Driving behind a taxi, especially in a city, is a big no-no. They have a special habit of stopping just in front of a crosswalk, and this makes the driver stop as well, because you never know whether he's stopping for a pedestrian or for a passenger (you do stop in these cases, right?).
In general, the annoying habit of taxi drivers to stop everywhere can be pretty annoying, but they do much more. First, they don't signal. Signaling is just a hassle for them, and they rather skip it, regardless of the consequences. Other taxi drivers ignore other traffic laws, such as arrows on the road. They turn left from a "go straight" lane and go straight from a left turn lane. Simply a distraction.
Do your best to avoid taxis when you drive, and pay extra attention to taxis on your driving test. They are big test killers.
