That moment when you sitting in the front of a taxi by the door, and it does a sharp turn then the door just decides to fling wide open o_O. You just glad you didn't fall out...

Well bab' Mkhize this morning strolled into Protea hotel with a water bottle because his taxi was over heating. Leaving a bitter crowd outside his taxi! On lookers being those enjoying their “English breakfast” at the 4 star dinning area. Some felt like hiding…Those of cause who like keeping appearance.

@BUSYBEE76 Sowetan would like you to share with them “Your joy ride” / experience in a taxi or send them the different hand signals of catching a taxi in your city / town.
