A salaryman has missed the last train after working overtime. He tries to hail a taxi some distance from the train station, but is unable to catch one. As he's wondering what he should do, he spots a vacant taxi racing along an empty street at high speed and finally manages to catch a ride, but then...

Soon, it seemed to be right 
outside the passenger door.

Cuando se dio cuenta,

Molto presto, sembrò essere proprio fuori
dalla portiera del passeggero.
De repente, parecia estar do lado 
de fora da porta do passageiro.
