However, Chad is unaware that this is the same taxi man that kidnapped Kiedis and also ignores the broken glass. At the end of the video, drummer Chad Smith flags down the taxi, with the cabbie realizing he is also a member of the band, so he lets him in and drives off with him. Kiedis soon sees Flea and Frusciante, breaks out of the taxi window, and jumps in Flea's truck with a sigh of relief as the three escape the cabbie. When Kiedis pages them for the second time, they set out on Flea's Ford Bronco to find him with the crazy cabbie in the taxi. At first, they think it's a hoax, so they ignore the first message. While there, the cabbie pulls out flare sticks and begins to torture Kiedis through awkward dancing while the latter finally pages bassist Flea and Frusciante (with a message reading, 'Help! Been kidnapped.'), who are having lunch in a cafe. The cabbie snatches the phone and throws it out the window, then drives the car in a cloud of dust and backs up under a bridge.

After he locks the car door, an uncomfortable and apprehensive Kiedis attempts to make a call on his cell phone, but the cabbie brakes so hard that Kiedis loses grip of it. Suddenly, the cabbie begins driving out of control as he lip-syncs the song while driving rambunctiously throughout the streets of Los Angeles.

To please him, the driver puts a copy of the 'By the Way' single into the taxi CD player, making Kiedis smile slightly. He gets in the taxi and the cabbie (played by Dave Sheridan) realizes he has him as his passenger. The video starts off with Kiedis calling for a taxi.

The music video was directed by Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris, a couple who have directed many other music videos for the band.

For it to be so well-received was shocking to me, but thrilling at the same time.' I guess they thought that it combined the wild part of our sound with the melodic part of our sound.' Vocalist Anthony Kiedis elaborated: 'I thought that single was an Гјber-bombastic assault of non-commercialism. Regarding its release, guitarist John Frusciante noted: 'It wasn't really our decision to put that song out first, but our managers thought it was an exciting song and their enthusiasm convinced us. Internationally, the song reached number two in the United Kingdom, becoming the band's highest-peaking single there alongside ' Dani California', and peaked atop the Italian Singles Chart. The song was the band's sixth number-one hit on the Modern Rock Tracks chart and spent seven weeks at number one on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. It is the title track and first single released from the band's eighth studio album of the same name (2002), on June 24, 2002. ' By the Way' is a song by American funk rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers.
