Punish rogue taxi drivers

IT IS good that the "KUL" taxi driver Sarmiento has been charged. There are many similar incidents that remain unreported, particularly those that victimized the youth and students. My two daughters aged 21and 6 almost got victimized by a taxi driver who they rode after getting a medical check up at Philamcare UN Ave. clinic almost a year ago. My eldest daughter noticed the driver texting while driving the length of UN Avenue. Sensing danger, she immediately texted and sought my help. When the driver observed that my daughter was street smart, he continued to frantically text and later made a call to someone. It was good that my daughter was briefed about such behavior. She asked the taxi driver to take them to the Ospital ng Sampaloc where I have thug friends who -- if they caught up with the cabbie -- would surely give him a lesson. I arrived at the Ospital ng Sampaloc minutes after they were dropped off, because I had a motorbike going full speed. I go for the revocation of the drivers license of taxi drivers who are found to have criminal and malicious intention to their passengers. The LTO should do something about this. It's the riding public who is at peril because of these monsters on the prowl in the metro. Noel Magsanoc Matencio, Ermita, Manila, via e-mail
