Pammo was in a taxi on her way home. Baljeet, the taxi driver, knew she was a frequent visitor to the mall and is a well-known chatterbox. So he didn’t want to engage in conversation with her. So he pretended to be deaf and dumb. He pointed to his ears and mouth to indicate to her that he couldn’t hear or speak. This ruse seemed to work. The journey was peacefully silent.
When they arrived and Pammo had got out the taxi, Baljeet pointed to his meter.
Pammo looked at the meter, read what she owed him, paid him and walked off. But she almost immediately realised that Baljeet couldn’t have been a deaf mute.
HOW DID SHE KNOW THIS?

Answer to the puzzle :
Baljeet must have heard her initial instructions. How else did he know where to take her?
You missed it, I conclude :-)
