As we enter the third month of the year, videos of taxis in the worst shape or drivers doing the most continue to flood social media.

Passenger turns into driver

A woman named Happiness took to her TikTok account to add to the 'Taxi Chronicles' madness and shared a video of a person sitting in the front passenger seat. He steered the wheel while the driver's seat was vacant.

According to Happiness, during heavy traffic, the driver left the vehicle to relieve himself. When cars started to move, the passenger in front quickly had to take matters into his own hands as there was another taxi behind them.

"We test God every day," she wrote with a laugh.

When a TikTokker asked the commuter why the passenger didn't sit in the driver's seat, Happiness explained:

"At that time, it was already late for him to jump over. He had to do something quick. Even when he left the vehicle, we thought maybe he was checking tyres or something, but he ran in the other direction."
