Just after midnight, in the very early hours of March 18th 2017 I asked the driver of this car to drive the 9 or so miles from Hertford North station to my home in EN6. He quoted £30, which I believed to be excessive but agreed. I only had £20 so asked him to go via a cashpoint. He pointed out that there was a cashpoint machine at the station, so asked me to get out the remaining £10 there and then; which I did. I then got into the car and he demanded the money up front. I showed him the money, as a show of faith, and said that I would pay him on arrival. He said that I must pay him now, before driving an inch. I was down to my last few pounds and felt very nervous about doing this, so I refused. I showed him the money again, declaring that I would pay him but there was no way that I was going to pay for a service he hadn't carried out. In my experience, that's not how these things work. You could argue that drivers have to face the possibility of passengers not paying; but what about us? We could be robbed. I don't feel entirely safe handing over £30 when the driver could just take the money and throw me out of his cab.

He demanded that I get out. I questioned the legality of this and he got very angry. I started walking, hoping to flag down a more reasonable driver. After risking my life walking on dark roads for three hours and nine miles, I arrived home. It was after 3am.

Was it a legit taxi? You usually pay the fare at the end of the journey.

On the bright side, at least you got home in the end in one piece and saved 30 quid.
