Mexico City Taxi Cab Ride on the Day of the Dead Doc Drumheller
I was told it is very dangerous to hail down a taxi in Mexico.
But I did so anyways and was picked up by an elderly man wearing glasses.
All four wheels of his cab wobbled as we drove his speedometer was stuck on zero.
The needle of his gas gauge was on empty his indicators didn't work either.
His transistor radio played eighties hits
as he zipped through traffic like a race car driver.
I watched the red light of his meter skip from thirty to forty pesos in a flash.
No kidnapping happened on this day of the dead as I admired someone's grandfather.
