The passenger tapped the cab driver on the shoulder to ask him something. The driver screamed, lost control of the car, nearly hit a bus, went up on the sidewalk and stopped centimetres from a shop window.
For a second everything went quiet in the cab, then the driver said: “Look mister, don’t ever do that again. You scared the daylights out of me!”
The passenger apologised and said he didn’t realise that a little tap could scare him so much.
The driver replied: “You’re right. I’m sorry, it’s not really your fault. Today is my first day as a cab driver. I’ve been driving a hearse for the last 25 years”.
