This is a sequence where a taxi driver (with the car full of customers) demonstrates crap driving - no single serious incident, just a sequence of crap driving.
1: Squeezes past me as I am at the stop line at a red light - technically he jumps the red light
2: Overtakes far far too close and cuts in front of me
3: Brakes immediately after, because the road is narrow for a taxi (but not for a bike). He forces me to brake and makes me wait - only because of his previous dangerous overtake.
4: Brakes for no reason, then cuts right without indicating as I was just about to undertake
Again, none of these incidents were serious (because I am a good rider with good brakes). And the overall impact, this being in the city, was that he slowed me down a bit on my way to the next red light.
But think about it - he drives for a living. He has no sense of distance, time or speed. He has no clue how some traffic is faster than other traffic at various conditions. And last but no least, he does not even know how to operate the vehicle he is in (fails to stop before the stop line at a red light, fails to use the indicator at a simple right turn).
selfish prick, and to think, including personal driving, he is likely to be driving like this for well over 40 hours per week, he must annoy a lot of people in a week
