It was the ride of a lifetime for one cabbie when his passenger went into labor in his taxi.
The cab was near the intersection of 49th Street and 10th Avenue in Brooklyn Tuesday when the 30-year-old passenger said she was about to go into labor.
The cabbie flagged down police and emergency medical crews. They helped safely deliver the baby.
Mom and infant were transported in good condition to Maimonides Hospital.
