do i have a legal case?


Question Posted Friday September 26 2008, 2:36 am

so a couple months back, i took a taxi home late from my boyfriends house. the cab driver was about my age and started talking to me. it got weird when he asked if i had a bf. but then on my dark road, he asked if i wanted to go somewhere and he specifically mentioned getting head. i said no thats so inappropriate. i felt so violated. in a cab you trust the driver to be safe. as a passanger i am vulnerable. i feel like i could have been raped! do i have a sexual harrassment case? the driver was persistant and almost began begging, it was terrible.

Taxi Driver is providing a service as a representative of whatever company.

Heres the thing.

You have a case if you have evidence. If it was just you and him in that car, its your word vs his unless he had a camera recording him (I can guarantee that he didn't, cab companies don't monitor their people like that usually) so that doesnt make for a case that a lawyer would take.

If you know a lawyer, ask some questions, but more than likely all you can do is give his cab company a call if you took down his cab number, license plate, and company.

Yes, I would say you have a legal case. A taxi driver works for the state and is supposed to be a trust worthy person. If he can't be trusted and violated you in such a way guess what, He needs to be fired right away. What he did was sexual harrassment, It's time to report it to the police. Who knows what he was thinking, He could of been thinking anything and you don't want this too happen to someone eles. Go to the police and report it.

if your younger, maybe for soliciting a minor.

other wise they'll argue it was conversation, and you could have asked to get out and get a different cab.

You would really need to talk to a lawyer
to find out if you can sue. I'm sure they
could get him for something.

I hope that you called the cab company
about this. If you haven't please do.
This guy has no business driving any
females around. You got very lucky.
The next girl may not be. Insist he be
fired.
