NOTTINGHAM TAXI DRIVER’S GOOD DEED REUNITES MAN WITH VITAL BELONGINGS
A Nottingham man wants to track down the taxi driver who helped to reunite him with his emergency rescue pack. Karl Kershaw, of Radford, got a taxi back from the city centre on Thursday, November 14, but it wasn’t until after he got home that the 46-year-old realised he had left important medication and personal items in the taxi. Karl explained: “I carry an asthma bag with me, three inhalers, medication, air buds, a leaflet and a spare bank card.” As it was an independent taxi Karl had no idea who the driver was or how to get in contact with him. Before he was able to track the taxi driver down he was admitted to hospital for a short while, during which he was surprised to get a
medication could be replaced, he was especially concerned about his earbuds and bank card. Karl said: “I really want to find this taxi driver and just say thank you. For that taxi driver to come to a high rise flat and
call from his neighbour on Monday, November 25. He was told that a man had been around the area describing Karl and asking if anyone knew him. It turned out this man was the taxi driver who had dropped Karl off a few weeks prior and was trying to f ind him to give him back his bag. Karl has now been reunited with his bag and although his
track me down two weeks later, it must have taken him some effort. “I would love to pay him the fare for the journey he took just to return this. He had been hunting me down for two weeks.” Karl is really impressed by the driver’s actions, and added: “It gives you a reminder that there are nice people out there.” Karl is keen to find the taxi driver and is urging him to get in touch.
