Unsafe taxi drives passengers to their destinations

In another story, Briefly News reported about an unsafe taxi that drove with passengers as if there was nothing wrong.

In a clip uploaded by @tshego_setso, the taxi was driving without the main sliding door and what was shocking was the fact that it had passengers. The condition of its interior was not pleasing. One could conclude by saying it belongs to the scrap yard. The seatbelt was not up to standard, the side mirrors were broken and the door handles were also not as they should be.
