Every Taxi drivers should know how slows is his
meter.
The authority should realized that their “up to
7% slow meter ruling”
to safe-guard against those who deflates their
tyres to cheat is
discriminating against the majority who drive
with recommended
tyre pressure. Maybe all slow meters will
eliminate all complains in
regards to fast meters???
Only they can explain why they choose to be
biased in this ruling.
Taxi Companies instead of reasoning with
authority that it is fairer to
calibrate meter “exact” and bench-mark at a window of
minus 2% / plus 2 % during inspection, instead
of against 7%, chooses
to calibrate their meters at 3% or more. Other
countries calibrate their
meters “exact” and during inspection, check if
speedometer sensor is not
tempered with. Guess 3% will sure pass
inspection all time and guarantee
no extra cost incurred for re-inspection and man
hours loss on
recalibration.
This is only speculation, only Taxi Companies
know why they choose
to be biased also to its own drivers.
It is disappointing that Taxi Companies choose
to short-changed it own
drivers when they are the primary contributors
to their profits.
Taxi Associations, if their objective is to give
cabbies a stronger voice to
address issues, they ought to explain to their
members why they had not
address this unfair ruling all these
years?
Taxi Drivers, you have choices,
either continue to be short-changed or
start speaking-up and tell your
peers about this unfair ruling. You never
know, it could be your friend who
know how to make the right noise
that leads to this unfair ruling
been review.
