I was assaulted by a taxi driver; not sure what to do

Posted on 11/27/2017 4:38:10 AM PST by proud American in Canada

Hi,

I am a longtime FReeper and just needed to talk to someone. I will not post and run, but I must say, I am just getting into bed. I had to go to the hospital because I slipped on our hardwood stairs, and my head hit the wall.

I had a headache that would not quit, no matter how much ice I put on it. I even took a half of a tramadol that I got a couple of years after I fell on the ice in our rural Canadian driveway; nothing helped.

The hospital told me that the wait would be about three hours, so I told my husband to go home and get some sleep; by this time, it was the early morning. "I'll get a taxi," I told him.

Anyway, I called a cab and the guy asked me to sit in the front. He stopped on a sidestreet and started to kiss me, tongue and all. I had no idea where I was. He unzipped his pants and made me touch, well, you know. Then (I was wearing a dress) he put his hand into my underwear and inserted his filthy fingers into me.

I made him drop me off about a half of a kilometer from where I live; don't want him to know where my 18 year-old daughter or I live.

Anyway, I called the police; spend a lot of time writing out a statement and even had to give my clothes to them (my favorite dress! LOL!)

I walked through the snow in a pair of sandals, once I saw his taillights disappear. I walked into the house sobbing; my husband asked what was wrong. I wasn't sure if I should call the police, but my husband said, wouldn't you want to call if it were our daughter?

Anyway, I feel like I want to vomit. The police told me to go to the hospital to get checked out. I could not even hug my husband, I felt so dirty. At least I brushed my teeth and had a buttload :) of mouthwash.

I just wonder if he could have given me a disease with his taxi hands.

So either my husband or a good friend of mine will bring me to the hospital to get checked out; for what, I don't know. I just feel violated and dirty. He kept looking for parking spots on side streets and I was very scared.

Has anything like this happened to any of you? Thank G*d I wasn't raped, but I was afraid of that.

As I mentioned earlier, that's why in the Old West, pistols (worn in a holster under the skirt) were known as "The Great Equalizer." God made man(and woman) Sam Colt made them equal.

A lesson to others: When a cab driver “asks” you to sit next to him, the answer should be “Hell, no.”

"Thank you" for what? I do not believe this story happened. The OP has not responded to my original skepticism (which they are not obligated to do) so I have no reason to apologize.

The thought that a grown woman would be raped by a cab driver then ask an online forum what to do if too farfetched for me.

She already reported it to the police. It’s right in her post.

You have good advice here so I don’t need to add anything.
But I want you to know that I feel super angry that this pig touched you. I hope you get him through the civil and criminal systems. You are strong. You will be alright.

Her first clue should have been the “Harvey Weinstein” written on his hack license.
