Beijing Taxi Driver
2008-05-20 16:20:00 The vast majority of taxi drivers in Beijing do not speak much English. This can make traveling a little less convenient when trying to get around in the city. Of course many taxi drivers who don?t speak English are still as helpful as they can be, but they cannot give you the same sense of knowing that everything is okay as an English speaking driver.For this reason you may like to use a reliable and helpful taxi driver with a good knowledge of English. While many drivers have enough English to say a few words Tom has enough English to converse and offer advice about things to do and see in and around Beijing. Traveling around Beijing with Tom is not stressful because you know he will have the patience to wait for you while you sort yourself out with addresses.

American soldiers attack Czech taxi driver
2008-05-07 20:48:00 Cheb, West Bohemia, May 6 (CTK) - Three U.S. soldiers from a base in Germany attacked a Czech cab driver who drove them from Sokolov to Cheb on Sunday, local police spokesman Ladislav Boehm said. The driver was not injured, but his car was damaged, Boehm said. Three Americans aged 21, 25 and 35 years have come under the suspicion of assault. Near the village of Dolni Dvory, they attacked a cab driver, 40, who had to stop instantly to avoid an accident. Then he fled, Boehm said. A soldier, aged 25, several times kicked in the back door and rear fender, thus making a dent in it. When the driver returned to the car and wanted to drive away, a soldier, aged 35, jumped off the moving car. As he fell to the ground, he suffered light head injuries. The damage at the car is estimated at 50,000 crowns. Damage to property charges have been brought against the American aged 25, Boehm said. http://www.praguemonitor.com/en-/330/czech_national_news/22374/-
