The taxi driver watched helplessly as the passenger ran away when he learned the amount of money he had to pay. Fans immediately condemned him

The online community was stirred by the clip recording the moment the male driver helplessly watched the passenger in the back seat act strangely when he announced the fare.

Specifically, on a forum, a clip has just appeared recording the remarkable situation of a taxi driver, quickly receiving a lot of attention from the online community. According to the clip, the male driver takes passengers to their destination as usual. After arriving at the address requested by the passenger, this person took actions that alarmed the driver.

Accordingly, the passenger sitting in the back seat said: "Let me stop here, how much money did you spend?" The driver gently replied: "It's 630,000 VND for me, but I'll only take 600,000 VND from you." The passenger continued: "Please give me the code to scan", worth mentioning, before the taxi driver could react, he immediately threw open the door and ran away.

The male driver knew he had been tricked, so he looked panicked and quickly took off his seat belt and got out of the car to chase, but was helpless because the other passenger had already run away. The entire above incident was clearly recorded by the camera on the taxi.

After being widely shared, the clip immediately received a lot of attention from netizens. Many people have expressed their frustration at the male passenger's blatant "stealing". In addition, people also expressed sympathy for taxi drivers, who had worked hard but encountered scammers.

"Next time you drive at night, lock the car door and only the driver can open the door, learn from experience", "At night, the driver turns on the ceiling light, gets out of the car and turns on the interior light to identify passengers through the camera more clearly." ... is the comment left by netizens.

This situation is considered a valuable lesson for drivers, who should be more careful and attentive when carrying passengers to avoid unwanted incidents.

Sharing with Thanh Nien, Mr. PVM (21 years old, from Thuong Tin District, Hanoi), the driver in the clip, said that the incident took place around 10:40 p.m. on November 2. At that time, he took passengers from Huynh Thuc Khang street (Dong Da district, Hanoi) to Vuc Vong village, Yen Bac commune, Duy Tien district, Ha Nam. This person is a customer waving on the street, not booking a car through the switchboard.

"I picked him up from the bar and saw that he wasn't holding anything on him, just a phone and a shirt slung over his shoulder. I was a bit suspicious but didn't dare ask. He was still awake. not in a drunken state," Mr. M. said.

Because the customer did not book a car through the switchboard, the taxi driver did not have a phone number. After knowing that this person did not pay and ran away, Mr. M. opened the door to chase. However, at that time, there were no people around. He was afraid that the car would be unattended, so he turned back immediately.

"I feel very sad because the money that was stolen was a whole day's work effort. What happened happened so I just encouraged him to go to the replacement and continue to work. The passenger sat in the back, the car felt a bit dark. So I don't remember their faces clearly," the male driver said.

Mr. M. was formerly a barber. When the Covid-19 epidemic broke out, barbershops closed, so he switched to learning driving and has only been a taxi driver for nearly 5 months. This is also the first time M. has been "blackmailed" by a customer.

The "unlucky" male driver added that other drivers also encountered similar situations, so they also shared their experiences for Mr. M. to pay attention. However, because the amount of money lost was not too large, M. did not report it to the company or to the police.

Each month the male driver will pay the company 2,875 million VND for receiving passengers via walkie-talkie. His car is his own, so money received from customers does not have to be returned to the company. He posted the clip on social networks with the hope that his colleagues would be more vigilant and pay more attention to avoid losing money unjustly.

"People have advised me to lock the door next time, but I'm also worried because I'm afraid they'll have a knife ready, which will be even more dangerous. Next time, I will prioritize accepting customers who book through the switchboard over those who wave." , he shared.

That said, the driving profession is also very difficult, especially for service drivers. Not long ago, the case of a technology vehicle driver being robbed of money by a female passenger attracted a lot of public attention.
