"Mr Wilkins told the trial in Epping that he picked up Tweed and three other people in Epping in the early hours of May 5 last year.
He said Tweed became aggressive after being asked to pay the fare in advance.
Mr Wilkins said Tweed, who was sitting behind him, grabbed him in a headlock and threatened to stab him.
"I have, as a taxi driver, picked up a lot of people who are aggressive but never as aggressive as this," he said.
Tweed told police he had been drinking all day before going to a club where he drank 10 vodka and Red Bulls plus a couple of shots"
