The Travel Day from Hell
An interesting tidbit there. If something very strange is going on ensure the driver takes your bags out of the trunk before you exit the cab. Otherwise they leave with you standing there and take your bags. Of course if you are concerned for your life ...
My most interesting ride was a cab driver in Yellowknife, NWT who got a speeding ticket while I was in the car. This was just after have gone through a stop sign at a considerable speed. The RCMP member asked if I was in a hurry. Presumably he would've kept the drivers license and have the driver meet him at the station after dropping me off.
I few months later I was reading in the local newspaper about how city council put in a bylaw about how many points a taxi driver could have to be driving. They mentioned one particular driver who was almost suspended on points. "Aha" I thinks.
