This happens quite often @ Parklane

There is a taxi stand outside Parklane SC

but like 2-3 am, ppl from nightclub/lan game all come out take cab

and alot of ppl nv follow the rules and joined in the taxi queue, and highjack the cab like 30 metres from the taxi stand

and many taxis pick these ppl up. -_-

I need to know if I was wrong.... ?

One night I was at the Night Safari... Saw a Looong queue of Taxis.... so decided to try my luck somewhere else... So I went to to end of the road to make U turn at the Round-About and on my way back There was this Ang Moh Pax who instead of walking to the Taxi stand decided to walk towards my taxi and waved me... I took him.

Question 1: Am I wrong in picking him up ?

Question 2: Do I have the responsibility to tell him to queue at the Taxi Stand instead ?

Please don't wack me or anything. I just want to know what is the correct thing to do by the books. Thank you.

When you are not caught.... you are not wrong....

Midnite no need Taxis stand one lah, it is a stand down for most of the rules, so many zombies and party goers along Orchard, the Quays from robertson to boat, and all those selegie KTV, after the romanian ambassador case, all take cabs to go home. Just wave and board only.

As for Zoo, you can alway take it as a special booking. And not alway you get so lucky. Why waste the luck. Most cabbies mind their own business, why go bother and complain about you.

By the books: Q1, yes, must alight/pick pax at t/s when within 50 m (if i,m not wrong abt the dist). i think this regulation is so pax u ferrying cannot insist to alight elsewhere within the radius cos if there are waiting pax at t/s, its in the interest of everyone concerned. Except of course, when pax alighting has difficulty in movement. After all, hv t/s is to prevent disputes, right?

Q2, yes, u shd. good karma (i feel) and fair to pax if t/s full of pax or to cabbies if long taxi queue.
