Taxi Cabs



A viewer of Salisbury News became outraged when he watched two local cab drivers racing down the Bypass. By the time he was able to catch up to them as they were exiting they were doing well over 70 but claims they had allegedly been doing around 90 mph. Remember Folks, it takes time to video something like this so even though the speedometer only shows 70+ mph, they were slowing down for the off ramp.

I dont want to hear it, because the "outraged driver" was going just as fast.

I find what she/he was doing to be more dangerous than the cabs.

lmao! that's nothing I routinely see the msp doing such shanighens!
at least those taxi drivers didn't turn right around and ticket the guy who was following them!

B.F.D...no traffic around except the videographer clogging the fast lane...shoot some video of them doing over 70mph(45mph zone) in North Salisbury RT13 thats like a racetrack up there.

Speed cameras gave them all tickets!!

(O wait, they don't put them on the bypass where people really speed 90+mph)

If there is no traffic around how is the driver clogging up the fast lane?

How do we know it was cab drivers? It could have been techs test driving cars. Besides, who cares? Did they hit anything or anybody? I see the same idiots every morning on 50 running similar speeds.

You can't have it both ways. You can't say there is no traffic around and then in the next breath say they are clogging it up.

My backyard adjoins the bypass. This happens all the time. It's only going to get worse with the nice weather. As soon as they hit the Johnson Rd. (southbound)overpass they gun the engines for the straight away to the end of the bypass. They've already started with the "crotch rockets" that go 90+.

Who cares? Let them kill themselves. It will catch up to them eventually.
