The Taxi Driver is an unnamed character in the novel Final Destination: End of the Line. The taxi driver is seemingly of Indian or Bangladeshi descent. When Kate Shelley and her boyfriend Brad are walking to St. Stephen's Hospital, he nearly hits Kate at a crosswalk when she, lost in thought, fails to notice the light change from green to red. Annoyed, the taxi driver flips off Kate before speeding off, not realizing the lights had changed again while he was distracted by Kate.
