Rookie taxi driver delivers baby in car
LISLE, Ill. (AP) -- Nedal Haddad of Chicago understood his new job as a cab driver entailed delivery - taking passengers from one point to another, that is. He couldn't have imagined it involved delivering babies.
That's what happened Friday, about a week into his new job, when the 37-year-old picked up a pregnant woman in suburban Plainfield and began driving her to nearby Edward Hospital.
Before they could arrive at the Naperville hospital, the woman - whose mother and sister were also in the cab - began giving birth.
"She said, 'I think I'm going to have the baby,'" he later recalled her saying. "I said, 'You better not.'"

I love what he told her. I have said the same thing to women sitting at my desk. And isn't is nice of him to waive the fair?
