A woman visitor to the city entered a taxicab. No sooner was the door closed than the car leaped forward violently, and afterward went racing wildly along the street, narrowly missing collision with innumerable things. The passenger, naturally enough, was terrified. She thrust her head through the open window of the door, and shouted at the chauffeur:
“Please, be careful, sir! I’m nervous. This is the first time I ever rode in a taxi.”
The driver yelled in reply, without turning his head:
“That’s all right, ma’am. It’s the first time I ever drove one!”
