Cabby watches Taiwanese variety show throughout 30-minute ride
A passenger was uncomfortable when he noticed a taxi driver watching an entertainment show while driving.
He told Stomp he had booked a ride via Grab, and a Trans-Cab taxi driver picked him up last Saturday night (Sept 16).
"The driver was watching a Taiwanese variety show while driving," he said.
He added that the cabby was watching the show for the entire journey, which was about 30 minutes.
The Stomper said he wanted to share what happened to raise awareness.
Stomp has reached out to Trans-Cab for comment.
