The New Taxi Driver

Last Wednesday a passenger in a taxi heading
for Salford station leaned over to ask the driver
a question and gently tapped him on the shoulder
to get his attention.


The driver screamed, lost control of the cab,
nearly hit a bus, drove up over the curb and stopped
just inches from a large plate window.


For a few moments everything was silent in the cab.
Then, the shaking driver said "are you OK? I'm so
sorry, but you scared the daylights out of me."


The badly shaken passenger apologized to the
driver and said, "I didn't realize that a mere tap on
the shoulder would startle someone so badly."


The driver replied, "No, no, I'm the one who is
sorry, it's entirely my fault. Today is my very first
day driving a cab. I've been driving a hearse for
25 years."
