Had to take my car to service today. While driving in my street Haugerudhagan which has a speed limit of 30 kmph a taxi came very close to my rear, and suddenly he passed me. I was driving at 30 kmph so I felt that I had to notify the taxi driver that I did not agree with his action. So I did the only thing I felt was right, used the horn and flipped my finger. The result: He flipped his finger as well while slowing down to about 30, I disagreed since he had been the one breaking the law, not me, so I flipped the finger once again. Then he stopped and got out of the car, a young Pakistani playboy looking driver. He walked towards my car.
“What should I do now” I thought, leaving only one option – I got out as well, ready for some action 🙂 He said “Why do you flipp your finger towards me????”, I responded like the gentleman I am “You broke the speed limit, I felt that I had to notify you about me disagreeing with your action kind sir!”. “I have passengers who are in a hurry!” he replied (still with enough time to stop and yell at me). I replied “I live in this street, I’m tired of cars speeding here” – leaving him with only a “doh!” and then he walked back to the car and speeded away.
So kind sir in taxi A9043 from Christiania Taxi, stop speeding
