Roman taxi driver cheating customers with a remote control

A police officer in the Roma Prati metropolitan area detained a 37-year-old taxi driver. When checking it turned out that an enterprising man increased the cost of each trip with the help of a remote control. The taxi driver worked legally, but his counter received an additional upgrade in the form of a control unit, which received control signals from a small remote control hidden in the driver's hand.

The Italian portal www.ilmessaggero.it reports that the unfortunate inventor increased the travel distance of passengers and, accordingly, the cost of the service. Dissatisfied customers complained to the police, an investigation was initiated. When inspecting the car, additional equipment and a mini remote control were revealed.

It is expected that other victims of the fraudster with the "cups" will turn to the site. By the way, this citizen was already on the note by law enforcement agencies in connection with his penchant for adventures.

This is not the first case of fraud among taxi drivers. Not so long ago, the capital's driver hid with the luggage of tourists from Germany. Although, there are among Roman drivers and incredibly honest people. Finding a handbag with 17 thousand euros in the back seat, the taxi driver made every effort to return the money to his passengers!

With many of them, she took her first steps in learning Italian, and with some - like me - she became good friends.

Medici or Medici: who controlled the throne?

For several consecutive years, in mid-October, I have been leaving for a week in one of the European cities to relax and see how they live there. Brussels turned out to be a charming, fragrant chocolate and beer-foamy French-speaking city. From the words "bonjour" and "arevoir" sometimes dizzy, and in the throat began to tickle from the gressed French "r".

BlogoItaliano Helps Learn Italian Online (via Skype)

Does it happen to you that having barely met a person, it seems to you that you have known each other for a thousand years? This happens to me extremely infrequently, but recently it happened. A rare human charm, a complete lack of pathos and mutual love for Italy ... I guess I could write about my beloved girl like that, but in fact Vika is our Italian teacher :).

We speak Italian since childhood

When I first arrived in Italy, I was sitting in one of the cozy cafes on the Rimini promenade and did not know how to ask for a cup of coffee. The slender brunette waitress looked at me piercingly for a long time, smiled, and then came up and asked "caffè"? Yes, I really wanted coffee! Burning, fragrant, a little bit bitter and leaving a pleasant aftertaste.
