HSBC free taxi--pointlessly congesting, heating, and polluting our streets.
This HSBC taxi offers free services within Manhattan to HSBC customers.
So, it drives around all day, (probably most often with no passengers), generating air, noise, and heat pollution, and taking up street space so that other cars pollute more too, all for nothing but advertising.
I'm not opposed to "brand" vehicles if they serve a purpose other than clogging the streets. If they transport goods or passengers, then fine. But if they do nothing but drive around, then they should not be allowed. This is an example of the bad kind--how often do you really think it picks up and transports someone who's proven they're an HSBC customer?
A few blocks later, I saw one of those two damn Jeckyll and Hyde vehicles (the Hummer, not the stretch limo (both such gracious choices)) which also serve no purpose except driving around--they're loaded up with zombie mannequins so they CAN'T carry any goods or passengers...
