I’d reread all senior citizens yearly. I don’t care why they drive.

Fun cab stories:

I had a cab driver on a van do 120 km/h (75mph) on an offramp I do at 60kph in a sedan.

I had to teach a cab driver how to drive on snow/ice once. As we drive on i75 (in fairness this was in Atlanta, and I grew up in Canada)

I had a (private) driver reek of alcohol

A (private) cab driver in BsAs doing long division on a piece of paper on the freeway (we had an argument over some math I did in my head)

A cab driver in the Andes had a wadfull of coca in his mouth.

Of the half dozen Greek cab rides, only one didn’t give me the run around. (I tipped him the full fare, and he refuse it until I told him it was for his honesty)
