A Hero

Taxi drivers have always been affiliated to eve teasing, over speeding, and breaking traffic rules by the people but the good deeds they do always go unnoticed.

A taxi driver once returned a bag belonging to one of the passengers, he was thanked and the deed was forgotten.I agree that all the apples on a tree will not be tasty similarly I feel it is wrong for us to generalize and conclude that all taxi drivers are not disciplined.

Earlier this week, a young woman met with an accident on the express way for no fault of hers. She was going towards Babisa on the expressway, which is one way, and a truck came from the opposite direction on the one way. It was dark so she first thought that the truck was on the other lane. When she noticed that the truck was coming on the wrong lane she honked but the truck did not stop. The truck hit her car and left without even checking if she was all right.

She was left there on the road with her head cut open but no one stopped to help. There are usually many vehicles plying on the express way but none stopped to help except a taxi driver. He stopped and helped her. She was in a critical conduction and could only give a phone number of one of her relative. When she woke up she was at the hospital with her head stitched.

Had the taxi driver not stopped to help god knows what would have happened. The doctor said she was brought just in time.

Kudos to the driver who ever he was.
