I gave birth in a taxi

A MUM who gave birth in the back of a cab at 40mph was shocked when the firm sent her a £60 cleaning bill.

Farah Cacanindin, 26, unexpectedly went into labour five ­minutes into a 13-mile trip to hospital for a routine check-up.

She delivered daughter Naia herself in the Vauxhall Vivaro while the cabbie phoned ahead to alert staff at Stoke Mandeville Hospital.

Days later, Farah, from High Wycombe, Bucks, was billed for £90 by Arrow Taxis, – the cleaning plus a £30 fare.

Farah, also mum to 15-month-old son Kairo, said: “I understand that I did make a mess but it’s a bit cheeky to have charged me.”
