I kanna once just a few nights ago.
One PRC woman in her thirties flagged me near lor 20 geylang
after midnight. Say wanna go hougang ave 8. I initially wanted to
go straight take PIE then CTE exit AMK ave 3 but she insist I turn
into lorong 17 and go by aljunied road. She say she everyday take
this route but I explain to her that I'm a newbie so if take her
route, she needs she guide me and she say ok.
I proceeded then while driving towards aljunied, her hp rang and
she was talking on her hp to some guy, those mushy talk, I start to
panic as I reach aljunied and duno which way she want to take. I
asked her and even gestured to her but she was so busy talking that
she ignored me. So Bo pian, I look at road signs to help me. Think
I used upper serangoon till I hit yck road. Then turn right as
finally I see hougang ave 8 on the road sign . Finally she then put
down her phone and she commented that this is the first time she
used such a route home. I said, there we are, next turn would be
ave 8.
Upon reaching her flat, total fare is $16.06
I told her fare is $16. Then she told me, she can only pay me
$15. I asked why? She said this is the most expensive ride she ever
taken and usually max is $12-13+ only. As I was about to ask her if
it's midnight or not, she left the money on the armrest then slam
the door...
Tmd...
So tell me. Am I being short charged or I really had taken a
longer route?
upper serangoon straight to junction hougang ave 2/3 then turn
left, you should not have turn to yck as it is longer
