hahaha. Good idea. But one obvious question, how the eff does he determine the size/shape of the passenger helmet?

If he is doing this for a fee then he needs commercial insurance and if something happens he will not be covered by his insurer. Taking a whole lot of risk!

Same with motorcycle taxi, it's the best way to get across London Traffic. They carry 2 helmet sizes with paper liners, and they even have a waterproof poncho.

They have been doing this for over a decade.

if lane splitting/filtering were allowed as it is over there, then I can see it being a thing.

The Top Gear version would be all right....but would be limited in the hours to work a bit? Mostly early morning mostly and the occasional outside that?

That picture looks like it's from the UK. Looks like a Peugeot 307.
