London taxi drivers are mounting a third protest over their exclusion from road lanes dedicated to Olympic traffic. The demonstration comes just hours ahead of the Games’ opening ceremony.

The cabbies started their protest at London’s Hyde Park corner Friday. The Olympics opening ceremony is expected to start at 9 pm London time.

The drivers of the capital’s iconic black cabs are upset at being barred from the "Games Lanes" reserved for Olympic athletes, officials and VIPs. The protest follows two other demonstrations, including one that blocked traffic at Parliament square.
