Research Papers / business law case (Dinky, a taxi driver for Asmara) [5]
QUESTION
Dinky, a taxi driver for Asmara Ltd, picks up Patsy, a "fixed list" passenger, at the Deli Supermarket in Huntingdon. Patsy wishes to go to Maynard, a town 7 miles away.
Dinky starts off his journey and soon encounters traffic congestion after completing 5 miles of the journey. At this point, Dinky stops at a bus stop at the side of the road and tells Patsy that it is much better for Patsy to walk to Huntingdon, as she will reach her destination much faster. Patsy informs Dinky that she is not in a hurry and so, does not mind the long wait as long as she is in the air-conditioned environment.
Dinky refuses to move and switches off the air condition. Patsy gets out of the car and refuses to pay Dinky. Dinky informs Asmara Ltd.
