Didn't see this posted as I felt I need to have a rant about it.
NO, its not a racist act for not picking you up. Ive been refused a taxi in the CBD of Melbourne because I wasn't going to the airport on a Friday afternoon. At least 15 taxis all did the same thing to me, locked the doors, wound down the window - asked if i was going to the airport - I say no - they drive off. Happened a few times actually.
Is it racist if the Indian driver does it to a white person ? I mean I didnt care as I was in no rush nor felt entitled to the cab. Couldnt help feel discriminated against - for not being rich enough to want to go to the airport on friday afternoon.....cant say its because I was white..
