    What happened to this taxi??

    This channel keeps appearing in my YouTube list. Usually it's just drivers cutting in one another, but this taxi is something else. What happened?

    Purely wild speculation but he was probably looking at one of his 5 or 6 phones on the dashboard and either had a win on the horses or one of his other business earned a nice sum. In the excitement his foot slipped and in the panic he engaged reverse and the rest is history.

    I love this stuff. Wiles away many a dull moment. YouTube is obviously full of it but much more exciting when closer to home

    Mental breakdown?

    How many taxis did he damage? The forward shunt seems to have hit quite a few.

    How many hours have the taxi driver been on duty? He also could have just switched from night shift to day shift and hasn't gotten use to the new hours. Excessive hours combined with lack of sleep=dangerous driver.

    He was quarrelling with some people on his 5-6 phones on his dashboard and he cannot control his emotions.
