Survival Tips 101

How to Escape A Wild Taxi Ride

1. Claim you have no money. The ride should end immediately.

2. Light a cigarette.

3. Threaten to vomit.

4. Act like you are calling the police or the taxi commission on your cell phone.

5. If the cab stops, run.

6. Jump. Wait until the cap approaches a turn or slows for a light. As the driver brakes, open the door facing the sidewalk. Tuck your chin to your chest, cover your head with your hands or briefcase, and jump out of the car. Roll away from the taxi in a somersault position.

Good advice for the next time I'm in NYC, maybe.

You have GOT TO watch the music video for "By the Way" by the Red Hot Chili Peppers. I'm sure it's on Youtube. It fits in excellently with this post. :)
