Taxis can’t seem to catch a break lately. Touting, overcharging, and now possible injury of their own customers.

What happened?

A family had taken a ComfortDelGro Taxi and to somerset dropped off at the usual 313 spot. It’s a routine drop off as the passengers exit, but things go awry when one lady closes the boot.

For some reason, the taxi driver started moving despite one of the doors still being open, right as the dad (or uncle, granddad) goes to pick up a small child from the backseat. It seemed the taxi driver did not realise not everyone had alighted until it was too late, and both man and child fell to the ground.

Uncle heard the boot close and was immediately hunting for the next fare. Didn’t even get out to make sure they were ok.

Luckily, it seems no one was injured, and the family seemed relieved enough at that as they did not pursue the matter any further. 

Online chatter

Netizens however were not as forgiving, wondering how the taxi driver could be so blur, and didn’t even go check on the adult and child.

Others praised the family for being so merciful to the taxi driver.
