6 Things I've Heard and Seen in Cabs That Should Never Have Been Said or Done.

As a previous regular cab user in Norwich I've heard some pretty shocking, non PC things.

Me and my friend were discussing this and wondering about why the cab drivers in Norwich seem to think this politically incorrect, offensive, overshared language is acceptable to say to young people.

So I've decided to list a few of the worst ones and ask why this might be a thing?

Despite only two of these seeming directly threatening to women they all have made me feel uncomfortable, grossed out and powerless. When you're in someone else' car it's hard to challenge what they're saying as you don't know how they might react. However by not reacting does this encourage this behavior? Does it make them think it's ok to use me, the vulnerable customer, as a racist diary? 

This is not to say that all cab drivers in Norwich are horrible racists but these are a few stand out experiences and I know friends of mine have experienced similar things. 

1) "I used to live in London, I'm not racist but there's loads of black people in Croydon"

2) "That driver is either foreign, a student or a woman"

3) "She won't be blown away look how fat she is"

4) "The Asian students are so tiny look at them"

5) The man who wasn't wearing any trousers. 

6) "I'm having the best day of my life, we're leaving the EU" 

So there it is, 6 things I've heard and seen in cabs that should never have been said or done.
