Driven to a corner

Even taxi drivers are.... apart from the fare hike. I was introduced to a $66 camera with screen. This driver told me he has had it with passengers from Hell. His words were, "I get a headache when I meet those, especially those DISHONEST ones who enjoy blaming you for their faults! This camera is for my safety in both literal and virtual sense."

He related an incident where a passenger directed him to Tampines St 82. He heard it and confirmed with the passenger the destination street number and proceeded to drive. Upon arrival, the passenger twisted his words and said it's Street 22, not 82! He had the audacity to threaten with a police report and the driver challenged him to bring it on. "I am happy to drive you to the police station and see who's got it wrong. I have everything on tape!" he declared. The passenger instantly showed his guilt.

He related another incident where a car reversed and banged his taxi front. The driver in front turned around and said it's his taxi that rolled to the front. "This camera proved that my taxi wasn't moving! How in the world did my taxi knock him?! Evidence!!! I have it!!! There's no way you can run man!" the taxi driver said.

Clearly, it shows even if you get past your conscience and tell the whole world you are innocent, something will prove your crimes!
