A kindhearted beautiful lady goes viral when she shared on Facebook her experience on driving a taxi.
Cristina Tan, the woman passenger, got the opportunity to drive a taxi because the driver had lack of sleep.
While on the road, the taxi driver told her to ride to other taxi but she insisted not to. She suggested she’ll be the one to drive instead. They were still too far to her destination and it will be dangerous for her to be left in the unfamiliar place. The driver was too shy to accept at first. But because of what the driver feels that time, he agreed.
The driver immediately fell into a deep sleep when they switched seats.
Cristina discovered that tatay, the taxi driver, is already 70 years old. He still drives to support her daughters.
She woke him up when they’re already at her home.

First-time ko mag drive ng taxi. Haha
While on the road sabi ni tatay (taxi driver) lipat nalang daw ako dahil hindi nya kaya mag drive sa sobrang antok, sabi ko delikado naman kung baba ako somewhere hindi ko alam kung makakasakay agad ako so i insist ako na ang mag drive dahil malayo pa ang bahay ko from our location at first ayaw niya nahihiya at akala nya hindi ako marunong mag drive ng manual. Pero pinilit ko nalang para maka idlip sya habang traffic. Nung ako na ang nag ddrive nakatulog agad sya at humihilik pa. Habang nasa byahe ang dami pumapara sa taxi tapos nagugulat at natatawa dahil babae ang driver. Anyway, 70yrs old na si tatay sabi nya panahon pa ni marcos taxi driver na sya at puro babae anak kaya naghahanap buhay pa rin till now. Ginising ko nalang si tatay nung nakarating na kami sa bahay ko. Wala lang gusto ko lang i share kasi first time ko. Haha
