Wow
Thanks for the pictures!
the cabbie certainly lost control
1-scared spit-less-
2)hit gas -
3)hit curb lost control-
4) chunk of planter unweighted at least one drive wheel-might have helped stop him

“He started pounding on my car with his hands and was yelling things at me. I suddenly felt like I had to get out of there. It was becoming a bad situation. So I accelerated to get in front of him.” "I accelerated, and the rest is hard to remember.”

The above sure reads like fear to me-not road rage anger. Of course he could be lying, but since the bike rider was recently convicted for threats etc-and regularly intimidated subway riders into giving him free swipes(and been arrested 3 times for it)-I suspect this cabbie is telling the truth about the banging on cab and yelling.
-the bike rider had something to do with this-22 arrests-many involving some sort of intimidation-thug.
