A passenger in a taxi tapped the driver on the shoulder to hand him the
money. The driver screamed, lost control of the cab, nearly hit a bus,
drove up over the curb and stopped just inches from a large plate glass
window.
For a few moments everything was silent in the cab, then the driver
said, 'Please, don't ever do that again. You scared the daylights out of
me!'
The passenger, who was also frightened, apologized and said he didn't
realize that just a tap on the shoulder could frighten him so much, to
which the driver replied, 'I'm sorry, it's really not your fault at
all.'
'Today is my first day driving a cab. I have been driving a hearse for
the last 25 years.'
