This is a question Mini Cabs From Hell

We've all taken a dodgy cab in our time. One guy asked me to give him a back-rub in exchange for letting me off the fare. I was like, "here's the cash mate." Another chappy claimed to be Paddy Patel - a child actor from UK TV series Tuckers Luck - he drove like a speed freak and regaled me with stories that "playing a black Irish boy. England wasn't ready for it." So go on - tell us your worst and we'll tell the world.

[edit: for those confused by the term mini-cab, London has two sorts of taxis: highly regulated, licensed and salt-of-the-earth black cabs that you see in films and a whole bunch of unlicensed, uninsured, random cars driven by nutters who aren't supposed to pick up from the street (you have to phone for them). They are universally rubbish]

Ok, It's not a taxi story so much as a shit joke that started as an urban legend in 2001
You probably got this one in UK too, but had to share it...

Guy gets into a taxi and finds a wallet. turns out to belong to the (assumed terrorist nationality) cabbie's friend who want's to reward the guy's honesty by giving him some advice:

"dont go into parramatta (read: essex) on new years eve."

"why mate, is there a bomb going to blow?"

"nah, it's a shithole."
