"When we got to the taxi it was not full, we were 10 in the Quantum, my son is short in height when the driver collected money, then he asked me how old is your son and I replied he's 5. I gave him the R600, he looked at my stressed face and said "Boy take this money and go buy a schoolbag and shoes," he gave him back the R300."

"I just had to share my story with everyone! I must have dropped my phone while walking down the street.
