Oh but then I suppose there's always the taxi drivers who you can rely on to be working.

So what would you have them do? Have them operate a usual evening service, only for poor visibility to result in an accident, potential injuries, then all of a sudden it would be because management "only think of the money". Passengers are being told well in advance that services are being withdrawn early, and from what I can tell majority of last journeys will be adequate in the vast majority of instances. You seem to be forgetting that drivers also need to get home. 

The effort over the past few days by all companies has been outstanding to even get buses running, and wherever they can run they have done. To say that they haven't been providing a public service over the past few days is disrespectful.
