Is there any funny storys you have about passangers or others you work with.....

we had a new driver who picked up a nice old lady who does the same trip every day.
he pulls up at her destination and says "thats £8.15 my dear"

the poor old lady looks back in shock :shock: :shock: and says "but son i do this trip every day and its only £4 "

the driver then points to the metter and says "there you go dear the metter does not lie"

the old lady then points out to him that its the clock on the metter he is pointing to and he has never switched the metter on :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Similar situation, a lady jumps in and asks for the local bus station, very short fare.

Looks up at my meter and nearly dies of a heart attack, £15.10 she hollars, I can't afford that.

I said I wish but it's 10 past 3 dear.

Not so much of a funny story but it worked out in the end ok

picked up this female 40's early, quite dishy and attractive and well spoken, but thought she maybe iffy, but never the less off we set on a 20 mile odd journey, I thought

she was giving it big licks on the mobile to her partner calling him alsorts and for being such a w^nker and go back to your ex wife and all that, this went on the whole journey, phone never stopped ringing, and she cut him off a few times, the language was terrible

we had to go and pick up a spare key from a house 20 miles away,we detoured to a house somewhere else, but no one was in, so another detour to her ex husbands house, the biggest house you have ever seen with all the toys outside [cars] she got the key, the meter showed 40 quid cos she got her self lost with giving me directions, and I was dying for a pee. then we got lost again, meter still ticking, I don't know the area

I thought she was a very nasty cow at first, until the drink wore off, then she was very nice as we had a chat later in the journey, telling me all her problems, thats the rich life I suppose, same as everybody else

she was on the phone to whoever arguing and she said this taxi is now running up to 70 quid, you are going to pay for it, I thought here goes, will I get paid and by whom, by the time I had completed the journey I was only 4 miles from whence I started, the meter showed 84 quid, she said to me I know its not your fault your just doing your job, meaning the meter fare, we approached another massive house, full of top o the range motors, how some people live, got paid up plus a tip, 90 quid, then went home, did 3 jobs that night and thought stuff it.

other people/punters approaching the taxi, got to get rid of this bloke, said to punter thats it mate, got a job now you'll have to get out, I'm not takin you.

Talking of mobile phones i remeber once coming off the A1 at carpenters lodge as I came round the roundabout there was a car approaching southbound at 70 mph not slowing for the roundabout I quickly did an emergency stop suddenly he looked up (he'd been too busy chatting on his mobile to realise where he was) the sheer look of terror on his face as he hit the roundabout at 70mph. He made it across the roundabout just I bet he Sh*t himself though

Had a fare goin to Colwyn Bay in Wales once, driving down the A55 near the beautiful white church a couple of little old ladies overtook me but on the wrong carriagway, driving against the traffic. Better still they had a panda car behind them with everything on and they didnt notice him for miles! :shock:
On my way back i passed the empty car at the side of the road, dont know what happened to them, must have been arrested or something. :mrgreen:
