There's a short video of the mum giving her side of the story on the website
Unfortunately there's no video or other evidence regarding the actual incident
But clearly she thinks the incident worthy of police involvement, and that the driver should lose his badge

A disgruntled mum is calling for a taxi driver to be sacked after claiming he branded her a "fat b***h" when her children kicked leaves at his car.
Shauna Stephenson, 26, alleges she was thrown the insult by an irate 35 taxi driver after some leaves landed on the vehicle in Peel Street.
Shauna says she was blasted with the foul mouth rant and was told to "control your kids" as the taxi driver pulled up alongside her as her two children played in the leaf-scattered pavement on the way home from school.
She says her eldest child, seven-year-old Sophia, was kicking leaves at her younger sister on the path when some of the leaves brushed the taxi as it passed them and the driver pulled up alongside the young family.
Shauna, of Hutt Street, claims the driver then repeatedly swore at her and then shouted "get out of the road" at Sophia - leaving the Pearson Primary School pupil in tears. She said: "I think it's disgusting how this driver is driving around and giving fares to people - and he's this rude."
"I couldn't believe it - and it really upset my daughter. It was only leaves.
"He called me a fat b***h and I was just totally gobsmacked by it all, then he drove off.
"To call me that and tell me to control my kids is just bang out of order."
Shauna, who is also mum to three-year-old Olivia, said she wanted the driver to lose his taxi licence over the abuse she suffered at arround 3.45pm on Wednesday afternoon.
She also alleged that her daughter Sophia had ran home in tears after being told to "get out of the road" by the man, believed to be in his 40s, and was on shift at the time. She added: "It's just totally unacceptable and he should get the sack for this - this isn't how you talk to people."
35 Taxis have already spoken to Shauna to try and attempt to appease the situation following the incident. A spokesperson for 35 Taxis declined to comment on the incident.
