The driver and I were both fine, he just over-corrected his steering. Very comfortable crash. The car was an ~’07 Nissan Altima.

Did you call a tow?

Did you guys have to get a tow? If yes, did the driver run the meter?

In all seriousness, glad you’re okay!

2003 - on the way home through the park at 96th Street. Standard Ford Crown Vic taxi. Temperature in the mid 20s, just starting to snow. My ex and I were in the back. The driver lost it, spun it, and smacked the left front end into a stone wall. Driver (Russian accent): “Damn - I just pick up this car from body shop!”

No one was hurt, but we walked home, despite the cold.

No tips. He was a really nice guy. Tried to rip him, but he wouldn't take it. It was the start of his day, too.

-1*C. Not too chilly, just uncleared roads.

I was picked up by another cab, but didn't have to pay the first guy. His car should be fine, he just needs a tow out of the median. Didn't see the aftermath.

I actually did! The driver kept handing me his phone, I’m guessing because the people on the other end couldn't understand his accent.

Did he leave the meter running while in the grass?
