VOICED : The long road to becoming a London Black Cab driver

Patrick is preparing for the knowledge test, a rigorous exam for London black cab drivers, requiring mastery of routes and points of interest. Despite technological advances like GPS and competition from Uber, the test remains a benchmark of excellence. Scientific studies show that cab drivers have larger memory-related brain areas. The test's relevance is questioned, but it consistently outperforms GPS. The Mayor of London plans stricter regulations for minicabs, but they won't match the knowledge's rigor. Patrick believes the human brain surpasses sat navs.
