A taxi passenger tapped the driver on the shoulder to ask him a question.


The driver screamed, lost control of the car, nearly hit a bus, went up on the footpath and stopped centimeters from a shop window.


For a second everything went quiet in the cab, then the driver said: “Look mate, don“t ever do that again. You scared the daylights out of me!


“The passenger apologized and said, “I didn“t realize that a little tap would scare you so much.“


The driver replied, “Sorry, it“s not really your fault.


Today is my first day as a cab driver - I“ve been driving a van carrying dead bodies for the last 25 years.“
