Thread: Taxi Please...

It's not every day that you see a car driving along the road in reverse:

An Indian taxi driver, Harpreet Dev, has become a mini celebrity in his home town of Bhatinda, in the state of Punjab, by driving everywhere backwards.

The 30 year-old’s reversing skills have become so famous in his homeland, he has even been issued with a special government licence to drive in reverse anywhere in the state, located in the county's north.

Read the full article here. You can also view a video of the cab driver in action. Hey, aren't many roads in India already a bit on the hazardous side without the addition of reverse driving?

BTW, I notice the email address that's advertised on the cab uses a .IN domain...

Funny stuff, but it would be a bit unnerving to deal with in traffic.
