Just be sure and check your insurance covers those inevitable accidental collisions first

So if Ron Jeremy asked to pork the guy's wife, would he say yes?

steevmit: Just be sure and check your insurance covers those inevitable accidental collisions first

If he's a race car driver, wouldnt he actually be better at avoiding collisions than the average driver?

I mean, Formula One cars arent exactly cheap, or slow. I imagine drivers that like to crash wouldnt drive/live very long.

FTA - But when the former Formula One ace, plus his wife and two children "He drove at full throttle around the corners and over-took in some unbelievable places."

WTF? - is it worth the risk of injuring/killing all of them? A taxi is not a precision instrument, right?

Taxi=Formula One...FAIL

What a farking asshole. He could at least only pull this crap when he is alone so the kids would get the life insurance.

What is that Fark term? Oh yeah FAIL!

In his first year with Ferrari, Eddie Irvine was asked why his teammate Michael Schumacher's helmet was oddly shaped. Irvine replied: "Because he's German, he's got an odd shaped head."
 
2007-12-12 09:11:04 AM
because you know he'll just drive single file behind all the other cars and never pass them.

/flame on.

Michael Schumacher did this with his wife and kids in the taxi. I wonder if that effected his driving?

If it's NASCAR, no.

I think the story is awesome. The cab driver had the ride of his life. I'd trust Schummie to drive my car. No cop would have ever given Schummie a speed ticket.

/awesome the Schumacher flys commercial and not private jet.

All the comments today in each thread I've read have been nothing but pure fail.

I agree. I think this is cool as shiat. Would have loved to have been in that cab.

People have told me that I look exactly like Michael Schumacher, so I'm getting a kick out of these replies.
 
2007-12-12 09:21:28 AM
I'd let him take it the same way I'd let Chuck Norris commandeer a police cruiser if I were the chief of police. It's Chuck Norris, he's good for it. Hell this guy even got tipped $150.
 
2007-12-12 09:21:58 AM
Somehow I can't picture him saying "Don't make me stop this car! I'll turn us around and NO-ONE will have a vacation!". At least not while going 110.

In Germany the taxis tend to be BMW, Audi or Mercedes, so I'd bet they do better than the average American Impala, Caprice or Crown Vic.

That said, I'd rather have Schumacher driving a cab than the rehab drop outs or off-the-boat 'tards who normally drive them.

Maybe schumacher never met this chick either. Top Gear M5 Taxi New Winder

/I LOVE TOP GEAR!!
 
2007-12-12 09:25:34 AM
Police Officer (after stopping the taxi for speeding): Excuse me sir, who do you think you are, Michael Schumacher?

Schumacher: Yes

Police Officer: Oh OK, well on your way then.

\But in German of course
\\I don't speak German

Umm, that would be a picture of RALF Schumacher. (and Barrichello in the ferrari)

The story would be about MICHAEL Schumacher.

Nice try, but, umm, FAIL!

Schumacher was notorious in F1 for crashing into his opponents when it was to his advantage, allegedly on purpose. But sure, not at 200mph.

Damn, is everybody's overprotective mom posting in the thread today?
Count my vote for "cool".

/so filled with happy, I'm not taking the NASCAR hate bait.
 
2007-12-12 09:28:35 AM
For those of you who doubt the skill of F1 drivers. Go find a clip of Richard Hammond trying to drive one. It ain't so easy.
 
2007-12-12 09:29:11 AM
I was going to post something, but it all ended up sounding like gay man love for Schumacher.

Now I have to spend the rest of the day being misogynistic just to get over my own insecurities.

/go make me a sammich biatch!
 
2007-12-12 09:29:41 AM
is it legal to drive a taxi without a hack license? not that i care but it is one thing to let him drive it is another to talk about it.
 
2007-12-12 09:30:19 AM
Coolest story Ive read in awhile, IMO. Personally, I didnt think ol Schumi was capable of doing anything cool.

2007-12-12 09:42:31 AM
I don't know about you, but if Schumacher wanted to drive my 2000 Mazda Protege like a Ferrari, I'd be kind of worried. I mean, yeah, he should be able to drive it better than I could, but to just jump in and drive like crazy without any knowledge of how well the tires grip, how good the brakes are, etc... seems a little dangerous.
