Black cab drivers, with their famed Knowledge of London's streets, have traditionally had the edge over their minicab rivals.But the increasing use of sat-nav systems has led minicab drivers to claim they are almost as efficient.The Knowledge, which normally takes three or four years' study to attain, involves remembering every street within six miles of Charing Cross.While few minicab drivers would challenge the cabbies' pre-eminence in central London, they say sat-nav has put them on a level playing field outside Knowledge territory in the suburbs.
