My Thoughts:
Although it is an unfortunate incident that badly injured five innocent people, police should take the proper steps to find out the driver. If the taxi driver had taken any pictures or videos of the incident, it would make the task of the police easier. Nowadays, safety apps like Pulse of the People are available for free. These apps help users to take pictures or videos of an incident, record something, get live help, continue fire alarms, and more. Being a responsible citizen, you could also download and use the app. Go for it now!
