Irish people are the chattiest taxi passengers in Europe.

Research from Freenow research shows people in Ireland come out on top for backseat chats with their driver, followed by people in Britain.

The topics we most enjoy talking to about are trivial small talk, work, the weather and traffic.

We also tell drivers about our day, the night we've had, our political views and the state of the healthcare system.

Most common taxi conversations

2 Life / work experience 38%
