T2B40

Brain Teaser:

A London cab driver picked up a lady who was a notorious chatterbox. He did not want to engage in conversation, so he pretended to be deaf and dumb. He pointed to his mouth and ears to indicate that he could neither speak nor hear. After she alighted, he pointed to the meter so that she could see how much she owed. She paid him and walked off. Then she realized that he could not have been a deaf mute. How did she know?

Answer:

He couldn't be deaf as he must have heard her instructions when she entered his taxi or he wouldn't have known where to take her.
