What about the other nights? Not that I would bother to watch it anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was actually really good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTChris Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 (edited) Amazing patience shown by the driver. I assume she's been identified. ETA - The driver didn't want to press charges apparently. Edited September 13, 2023 by ICTChris 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like either the police told the driver to do one, or she shat it when he told her she was on camera and paid up and he let her out. Quote Inverness area commander for Police Scotland, Chief Inspector Judy Hill, said: “This matter has not been reported to police, however officers are now carrying out enquiries into the video to identify and trace those involved. https://www.inverness-courier.co.uk/news/inverness-taxi-drivers-have-to-protect-themselves-326296/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether she paid up or not is irrelevant. She’s on film saying what she said.

His face is nearly as clear as hers is and he's probably worried about retribution from her family/friends/other nutters, pretty easy to find him on Inverness taxi ranks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Scotland it is irrelevant - “pressing charges” is one of these English things that people think applies everywhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
