My Dad's father (Grandpa Frank) started his own cab company in Detroit back in the 1920's-1930's - he was up to 4 cabs as I remember, then one of his drivers had an accident with somebody, & they sued him & put him out of business. My Grandfather passed away around 1990. Here he is in one of his cabs: No Man With A Good Car Needs To Be Justified
