I experienced the worst taxi ride of my life last week.
Honestly, it was an incredibly awkward ride with some instances that gave me cause for worry.
I was picked up at the airport as well as was meant to be taken downtown to the hotel I had a room booked at. It should have been a pretty easy, straightforward experience, however unluckyly the driver’s English was entirely broken. I was able to communicate the address to him just fine, however once my associate and I got on our way he turned the radio on seriously loud to a channel I could not understand due to the language. I was willing to bear with that however what I couldn’t kneel was how high he was running the air conditioning in the car, and vents in the back of the vehicle were blowing frigid air from the air conditioner straight on me as well as it was unbearably cold. The vents in the back didn’t have the same covers as the ones in the front, so I couldn’t close them on my end, so I tried asking the driver if the air conditioner could be turned down. He either couldn’t hear me over the radio or didn’t understand, or maybe he simply didn’t care, however whatever the case I was ignored as well as the arctic blast from the air conditioning never wavered, then what made things even worse is that he answered his phone in the middle of the trip! I was actually uncomfortable as well as didn’t feel safe with that at all. I was glad when my associate and I finally arrived at the hotel. When I went to spend money him I gave exact change from what the toll said I owed, as well as he gave me a rather rotten look for the lack of a tip, although he didn’t deserve one after that.
