A woman with a small child got into the taxi. According to her, her child touched the door with a foot. This angered the 53-year-old driver, and he began insulting the passenger.
Instead of resolving the matter calmly, the driver continued to use abusive language even after dropping off the passengers. The woman managed to record everything on her mobile phone.
Police officers gave a legal assessment of the driver's actions. By court decision, the man was placed under administrative arrest for seven days, police say.
Law enforcement officers reminded that it is unacceptable to insult people and disturb public order, especially in the presence of children.
