These cities in the UK that cost three pounds to cross half of. Are they some kind of special, tiny city? Perhaps made out of lego? An awful lot of taxis charge a couple of quid as the minimum fare just to get in it, so where you're getting these taxis I don't know.

Here's a big list. Even allowing for the inherent unreliability of the internet (and some of those prices look a bit suspicious), just which city is it that costs three pounds to cross in a taxi?

Those prices look suspicious indeed. Most of my experience is from Glasgow around 2010.

I just entered a journey I made often (home in north-west Glasgow to the central station) and that website came up with £13.50. I clearly remember paying £5 with tip for that journey from a local taxi company.

Even with the dominant black cab company, I don't remember going home from the city centre late night for as much as that.

In Paisley, which is a bit smaller, I took taxis to the airport for £3 or £4.
