taxi crashed into the open door of another taxi

Do you take your surroundings for granted? You might just change your mind after watching how this taxi crashed into the open door of another taxi when its passenger was alighting.

As seen in the video from facebook, as the taxi pulls up to the taxi stand, its passenger opens the right door to alight.

However, another taxi suddenly drives past the right side of the taxi and crashes into the door which was left open by the passenger.

Thankfully, no one was injured.

This has led to a debate online as to who was at fault -- the passenger or the taxi driver.

While some said that "the passenger should have alighted from the left instead of the right", others have accused the incoming taxi driver of "speeding" and not watching out for the "safety distance".

The taxi driver should alight the passenger at the taxi stand or safer place.

KKH taxi stand is for queueing only. Alighting of pax is at the drop off point which is where the Sonata taxi is. It is the CB pax get off at the wrong side and not keep a proper look out lah....

You dunno mai luan luan kong lah. Unless you are those yao gui who like to join in the queue while alighting passenger...
