Thanx for reminding me about this blog babe , almost forgot it existed. Geez these okes get more brazen by the day.
Had a drive out to Fourways on the weekend and had a Taxi put his hazard lights on as they like to do. To you and me this would mean that some great calamity has befallen us and that we are in dire need. This is not so for a minibus driver , having your hazard lights flashing gives you every right to drive as you choose. Red traffic lights have no meaning and might as well be green. This was indeed what had happened to this muppet driving next to me in his white deathtrap. The funny thing was that the traffic was so heavy that him weaving in and out and making u-turns in intersections made absolutely no difference to the time it took him to get from point to point. I would listen to my radio and meet up with him every now and then , he would almost kill somebody inbetween us meeting every now and then .
I recall watching a truck driver reversing into a loading bay and really struggling to get this big vehicle man-handled into his slot. The workers watching must have been wannabe taxi drivers as the kept on shouting "Hazads ! Hazads !" "Put on ur Hazads" as if expecting that to make a better driver out of him.
Till later fellow taxi dodgers :-)
I intend to blog my experiences traveling the roads with these menaces. I hope that I can vent some of my frustrations in the process. Please join me and share your stories with me.
