On Jan. 30, 2017, SMRT taxi driver Mohamad Nazaruddin started his shift for the day like he did almost every day for the past two years.
The first passengers he picked up were a pregnant lady Ma.elena del Rosario Ortiz and her husband, who were on the way to the hospital for a routine check-up.
During the journey, however, Mohamad noticed that his female passenger was in pain, and he quickly altered his route to the nearest hospital instead.
But before reaching the destination, the expectant mother delivered her baby in the taxi -- with the help from her husband and advice from Mohamad, who then became a mid-wife on wheels.
Upon reaching the hospital, Mohamad immediately sought help from the nurses and even waived the fare for the family.

Mdm Ma.elena said of her experience:
"This is such an unforgettable and remarkable experience. I feel shocked and also overjoyed that my baby girl was born in a taxi. My husband and I would like to thank Mr Mohammad for doing a good job to take care of our baby and reassure us that the baby is fine. It was very well done."
