I try to encourage people to keep the name and number of drivers who are
particularly nice, sometimes they will kind of be on call for you when you
need them if they are in your zone.

Although I believe the driver was stolen and more stiff than ever. I didn't
hear any abuse in the video. She just reminded you that your dog had to be
on the floor.
