―Taxi driver^[src]

Kevin McCallister encountered a cab driver in New York City.

Biography

While Kevin walked away from two prostitutes, he spotted a taxi cab and called out "Taxi" before heading over to it. The taxi stopped, and as soon as Kevin ran over to it, he got in.

As soon as he shut the cab door, Kevin turned to the driver and remarked, "Boy, it's scary out there." The cab driver slowly turned around to face Kevin and told him "Ain't much better in here, kid."

Kevin took one look at him and was terrified by how scary he looked before leaving the taxi and took off for Central Park.
