you dont have to worry so much about getting robbed. The chances of passengers leaving behind valuables like handphones or giving you tips is much much higher than your chance of getting robbed.

Hi to all cabbies bros,

Before I start my driving, anxious to work out a simple list of item that I must carry with me everyday or present in my taxi. Any additional item to add? It may be useful for other newbies too..

Can anyone also share how & what are the common practises to deter robbery? Beside not to wear expensive jewelleries, eg: install internal camera?

- Install a 900mmX 350mm 3-5mm thick aluminum plate behind driver seat. It prevent knife from poking through.

- dismantle a solid wood sofa and use the leg to make one T Baton. Then wheck the heck out of any robber u come along.

- If the guy sit at front sit, upon him flashing knife, unbuckle his seat belt and step all the way the accelator. Then slam the brake and see him fly

- If the robber at front sit and belt up, unbelt urself, use the belt tie around his neck and wrap around the seat neck rest and pull. Use ur body press the guy to his seat.

Funny..funny. too much HK Jackie Chan movies liow..

I installed a decoy security camera infront of my gate and it works..Low crime doesn't mean no ....!

Sgm40 vps SG

La, I like yr 3rd point! Good to see his face stuck on my MDT bracket!

f1taxidriver SG

I agree that low crime does not mean no crime. But the robber also know the safest place to sit if he want to take your money. You can think of all the methods to counter the robber, but the robber also not stupid. Look at this real incident

Tell me how you want to counter this kind of pattern? You want to be hero?

Fallen-Angel SG

Install bars to seperate you from your passengers loh. Make a small sliding window opening to collect your fares after the trip.

Have an eject seat button so that you can activate it during times of danger lol.

this is funny~

Anyway I wanna ask a question, regarding abt ur taxi meter on board...

Do TDs power off their meter when at times no one is driving it? meaning there's one day when I notice a taxi parked in a carpark middle of the night, which I guess the TD is sleeping and no one is doing relief. However, the meter still has light on... not as in meter fare still running but still got power on... Is it a must to keep in on at all times?

you need more than just loose change. your float ideally should consists of fifteen $10 bills, fifteen $2 bills , six $5 bills and coins of various amount. This should last u for the night unless u suay 1st 2 pax give u $50.

for protection , take the changkul stick out of your army field pack and put in the cab, should be enough for peace of mind. mai anyhow take and whack pax hor hahaha.

can forget about the first aid kid and extinguisher la. cab on fire take your wallet , hp, coins and run , let the cb thing burn also shiok hahaha

For the trunk , get used car floor mats to cover the surface in case you pick some pax carrying smelly fish . Newspaper and cardboard wont prvent the juice from dipping thru, dont waste time.

basically those that you listed are just about the things needed.

good luck
