A Columbia Law grad is suing a cabbie for grabbing her by the hair and bashing her head against his cab's partition after calling her and her friend "bitches." According to The New York Post and court papers filed by 25-year-old Mei Ying Lai, cab driver Fazal Wali picked up the young woman on West 51st St., but became impatient when asked to wait for her friend, Nancy Hon, at West 29th St. Hon reportedly wandered off from the meeting point and Wali became infuriated.
Hon entered the cab while Lai and Wali were in mid-argument and the cab driver briefly locked the doors, demanding payment before he threw them out. After an altercation that involved a short race down the block with one of the cab's doors open, Hon hopped out but Wali allegedly grabbed Lai through the partition and started banging her head against the plexiglass. Cops initially addressed Lai as a fare beater, but she was later diagnosed with a mild concussion. Wali had his cab driver license revoked in August.




That cab driver is a sh*thead.
think what would be of this shit head driver meeting with the fucked mind that stabed all those people...?! the fate of the shitheads!
Actually, I don't blame the guy - we've all witnessed the attitude and pretentiousness from some of these uppity Asian byches...
Great, with his license revoked we now have a disgruntled man of Middle-Eastern descent among us...
Should INS be notified? I think deportation would be the safest bet here...
Aren't Korean chicks the most pretentious and snotty - you know, the ones with the little beady eyes and hooked nose? I might add that they usually have moms and aunts with the "corrective" eyelid surgery...
Ok the racist comments are disgusting. Gothamist, you need to do a better job monitoring these. its getting so stupid.
Anyway, I have been on the recieving end of some taxi driver aggression (i.e. when they get lost and you correct them) and its bad because they can take you anywhere and try to force you out of the car. Oh and good luck calling 311, those people are just as stupid.
Corrective eyelid surgery? You mean to make their eyes look less slanty? Crazy Korean women with their de rigeur Burberry ensembles and accessories...
the shitheads that appeal to racist comments to validate their insignificant existence are sooooooo sad.
keep using any hate towards others like the biggest achievement ever!
Those comments require like less than .0000005 of your brain capabilities.
