'What's so hard?: Brisbane teen's wild rant at cabbie shared on Snapchat

A teenager has delivered an expletive-filled verbal attack on a cab driver on Brisbane's south side and posted it on social media.

The 19-year-old's rant has already been viewed live by thousands of people.

The taxi council says the obscene verbal spray is an example of what drivers put up with too often.

Tamika Dudley shocked her thousands of Snapchat followers with an attack on a Black & White taxi driver who was unsure of her destination.

"I put in the GPS... so follow the GPS, what's so hard... what's so f**king hard about following the GPS," she said.

"You picked me up and you're a cab driver and you're telling me to get out because you don't know where you're going?"

"I've had it before this myself," one driver said, "but my experience, you calm the passenger down."

However, after the report aired Ms Dudley thanked 7 News for the notoriety.
