So in order to fit cars must be Small on the outside. Taxis paradoxically must be big on the inside in order for passengers to fit. The Fiat 124s is As Short As a v w Beetle on the on the inside it s big enough to comfortably seat 4 Large adults secondly to a roman Motorist staying ahead of other roman motorists is a matter of Honor. To be passed is to be dishonoured. And to the taxi the professional need for performance is All consuming.
