When Durban Joins the Fun: A Woman’s Unroadworthy Ride
But wait, there’s more! In a different story, a Durban woman had her own memorable ride when she booked an e-hail cab. In a TikTok video uploaded by @mashangase_, the woman is seen taking her ride to her destination, but here’s the twist: the cab wasn’t exactly your standard vehicle. Inside, the passenger seat was facing backward, and the vehicle itself looked like it had seen better days. The front door handle was broken, and the overall condition of the car suggested it wasn’t exactly roadworthy. Despite the unconventional setup, the woman managed to reach her destination safely, proving that sometimes, it’s the unexpected rides that make the best stories.
So, whether it’s a bakkie in Mahikeng or a quirky cab in Durban, one thing’s for sure: e-hail rides can be full of surprises. Who knows what kind of vehicle might pick you up next? One thing’s for sure—it’ll definitely give you a story to tell!
