some passengers kpkb,but in actual fact they don't know the routes,but they don't want embarass themselves,so they keep scolding taxi driver!

StriveOn SG

You wait long long loh....

If wait long long can have,... I wait.

But after wait long long still no have.......

JLKL SG

Drivers with better route knowledge ..... normally they will drive with confidence .

Paxes love drivers who drive with confidence .

me route knowledge very bad but i drove with confidence.. went wrong route also act blur, dan show some frustration, pax see also diam diam.. hee..

PS2U SG

Ask them to get out lah, TD not boxing bag or scolding bear for them to vent all their long day anger on us leh.

U also must understand many paxs all get stress up in their family and work and most important money matter, they when got chance to whack someone like a timid TD, sure pour down on you lor, just like those angry parents who scold their kids, for me, they fark me, I fark back, then later both said sorry to each other, I mean agar agar ok mah, but once you touch my intergrity, I never give chance liao

True. When I pick up pax, If I don't know the route, I will search on GPS. This can take up to 20 seconds. Pax who know the route will automatically tell I direct you. But I still try to key in to play safe. If really cannot find, no choice. Depend on pax directions.

Pax who do not know the route will wait patiently. All these are street pick ups or queues. If I do this with booking, sure kena fark. That is why I never do bookings.

PS2U SG

try to not over rely on GPS...............

Trying my best not to.

PS2U SG

I realise driving day more stress driving at night! Peak hrs and the traffic jam.. Pax rushing.. Erp cannot siam!

Like to add. Day driving not easy to change lanes if you need to do so suddenly. Everybody in a rush and nobody will give way. New drivers beware.

This takes time. I very happy when I famaliar with the route. I drive with so much confidence until pax want to tip me

PS2U SG

Bro, I am a pax. Just share my thoughts.

If a TD asks me "which way you want to go?". I will think he is unfamiliar with the route.

If he asks " which is your perferred way". I will have no opinion on him.

Just my thought. Have a good day.

Thanks for the advise.

Now if a TD asks which way you want to go, what would you do knowing that he is unfamaliar with the route?

The TD will definetely try to send you to your destination by all means whether by using Street Directory, GPS or calling other TDs'.

But by now you know the TD is not famaliar with the route. You still have the choice of taking another taxi.

So to all fellow TDs' If you do not know the route, don't be shy to say it.

Bro i newbie but also take booking... Earn more $$$... I also scared when just started OTR.

Ohyaitsme SG

Once at teck whye got current booking.. My knowledge of Bukit panjang really zero.. Pick up this minah ask me go zheng hua pri school pick her fren up then go queen steeet.. She dunno i also dunno... Gps also cannot find.. I talk to her friend over her hp... Say near bukit panjang plaza... Go there also cannot find.. F words all start to come out from her friend over the phone when she call later.. I told the minah to get down no need pay fare.. At least this minah apologise.. Haha..

PS2U SG

Ok. Fair enough. You cannot send pax to destination, you don't collet fare. Me also the same. But I will stay away from booking unless I at least know the area the pax is calling from.

komade SG

i still maintain. i dont give a fark about routes.
if anyone meet a driver who say he dont know the route, then maybe we met.
but if anyone who meet a driver who say he dont know the route, but still pay him full with tips, then confirm we met before ha!!
