Why ? Taxi Drivers Fault again.

Nope, me don't take risk. Once hit Yishun, all the way back to town. 10 mins reach town liao. If heng heng kenna call, got extra leh. hehe we diff drive tax...

No fewer than 10 taxis drove past us but did not stop even though they were empty and the 'for hire' light was switched on. There were other people waiting along the same stretch of road and they too had the same experience.

This is not the first time this has happened to me.

Also, taxi drivers parked at taxi stands, especially in the Race Course Road area, often refuse to take passengers. The authorities should impose tougher fines on such cabbies.

Why on raining days it is difficult to find taxi. On raining days it may be difficult and dangerous to drive where visibility is only 2 metre.

So most taxi drivers take a break until the rain is not so heavy.

Tio Bo... my fellow taxis brothers.

the above video is what happen as an example inside the taxi during raining day.

and this subject...said on NOV 25, between 9pm and 10.15pm, I and two family members were standing in the rain trying to hail a cab along Jalan Besar near the junction of Kelantan Lane.

So what you want from a taxi driver during the downpour..... Money or Safety.

than call LTA to verify. Mah... NATO this kind of coward only know to write.

What wrong?

ALN SG

cabbies need to rush to cbd to fulfil LTA objective first mah… to serve those inside cbd first…

and inside cbd also cannot anyhow take street pax… cos of 10pm cbd rule… not that cabbies are waiting for call hor

Raining day ?

Everywhere also got call , meaning everywhere got $3.50 extra , why bother to even glance at this sort of cheapos ?

Just like just now , after that sembawang pax alight at Mustapha centre at around 10.45pm , he said happily : " Alight somewhere near the entrance , got peole waiting ."

I replied : " No la , i dislike doing business with certain sort of people ."

" BUSY " , here you go again !

CBD so busy , got cbd and bookings , where got time at that area ?

Just 100 metres away , i closed 2 eyes , can earned extra $3 , easily .

Who's fault , my fault ?

Society fault .

Poolman SG

The worst is ....

Comfort Transportation , already know it , back in 2007 , with the the new fare structure , will caused a problem like that , and PTC also approved to it .

Both this 2 authorities , has got Board of Millionaires Analysis , so my fault ?

They have got datas , and still they proceed with such structures , who's fault again ?

And if wanna approve something , pls educate those people outside CBD those outcome of the new surcharge .

Education not enough .

Who's fault ?

Poolman SG

& who care ?

I only service those who willing to pay me more for my service .

komade SG

We juz play the rules set…...

thelionsleepstonight SG

If during peak hours, along Jln Besar I can pick up a pax.....maybe during non peak hours I will pick up one too.

Peak hours pax siam us like anything, so non peak hours we go into CBD to make up for the shortfall and loss of time.

Other people buy milk powder for their children, I won't want to only be able to afford condensed milk for my children.

Tio Call Liao SG

We owe noone a reason if our LED tops are set to BUSY and ON CALL. But i know a lot 'heroes' who bo chup & just whizz past with the taxi sign.

IMO , these fellas are the source of all these complains. Do u bros agree?

I believe LTA has already started deploying officers at the Lido just by the traffic lights.

good luck to these guys.

Tio Call Liao SG

wanna play the system , do it right , do it nice

wanna fuck around with the authorities, then dont blame them if they come hard on u.

When 1 day they decide to remove this CBD surcharge , lets see what u have to say.

You and a lot of others are already benefiting from this fare structure, so stop doing unecessary slams at these guys.

Can they afford it ?

hahaha... as always never wanna lose in a discussion :)

I beg to defer .....

It's this group of people that will make it possible for future changes .

Without this people ... we might just have to wait .

Poolman SG

hahaha... as always never wanna lose in a discussion :)

U go and think , logic to say they cannot afford it ?

Anyone disagree with me on this ?

Tio Call Liao SG

Yes yes TCL is always illogical. Only poolman presents the most factual account of the TD industry.

Poolman SG

TCL , remember it was us , who play call everyday , pick and chose everyday , hiding whatever spots we can find , safe and quiet ..... that came up with such structures .

Poolman SG

It was a good fare structure to curb those problems within the CBD .

Need some fine tuning though .

Not good enuf ....

after 8pm , lagi no need say . need overhaul .
