A cab driver has lost his licence after being filmed on his own security camera verbally abusing three elderly women.
Elyas Haidari was taking the women, who were in their 80s, to a Southampton day centre in October when he swore at them and told them they were about to die.
He later abandoned them by the roadside after ordering them out of his vehicle.
Southampton City Council said Mr Haidari admitted insulting them when confronted by officials. He could not be reached for comment.
'Severely frightened'
The council said the taxi driver had refused to help the women - who were partially-sighted - fasten their seatbelts.
John Burke, Southampton City Council's licensing manager, said: "I think he quite severely frightened them.
"Within four hours of the incident taking place the facts were put to him and he immediately admitted them."
Mr Haidari's licence was revoked at the local authority's licensing committee on 26 November.
During the meeting, Councillor Brian Parnell, chairman of the committee, said: "Mr Haidari's extremely offensive behaviour, abusive language and actions towards three elderly and infirm residents, who just wanted a taxi to take them to their day centre, was truly shocking.
"The whole of this serious incident was captured on the "cabcam" fitted to the vehicle which made the evidence easy to see and hear." [/quote]

Oh, I see what you did there.
Still, the guy's an idiot. He should be jailed.

I had to lol.
Why become a taxi driver if all you're going to do is shout at your customers and immediately lose your job?

I'm sure that wasn't his initial intention. People have bad days, and some people just snap, like this guy. Not saying he's right, but it happens.
I hope he dies today.
