In 2010, I took one taxi from Nanjing Road to Shanghai South Railway Station. The fare meter was moving faster than its normal pace. On the way I did not ask him about the pace of the fare meter. After reaching the station he asked me to pay RMB378 which was much more than the normal charge. When I disagree with his fare he even wanted to punch me. Then I called one police officer and explained him the case with my broken Chinese. After half an hour of high voltage drama police caught the Taxi driver. The police officer told me that the fare meter was fake one and the taxi driver did not have the license to drive a taxi in shanghai. Thanks to the Police officer. I was treated nicely.
