tot this was what everyone was saying

My friend tell me.... Once upon a time.. The 2nd hand car dealers all losing money... Cuz buy new car is more worth than used car back then....

So.... To save all these car dealers.... So someone introduced car rental and selling used cars to people working as phv...

So guess what? Suddenly all the used car dealers instead of closing down losing money big time... Now they huat... Then best part is... Cash flow comes liao and they start buying more cars to sell or rent as phv...

COE how not to high?

The most number of taxis we ever had on our streets was about 30K plus.

 

[meepokkia]

Now lesser taxis, more PHVs. They should be the same category, the market is being manipulated.

 

[Krabs.]

going to be total wipeout once the autonomous cars arrive .........

90k drivers lose income is 90k families destroyed .......... haven't add taxi driver


use law and regulation to block new technology will make SG look like international dinosaur .... it's these phv driver's only hope ..... hope is not a good strategy

 

[Shion]

Sacrifice the people pocket to save business many who lives in landed?

 

[iantao99]

An autonomous vehicle still requires COE.
It's only the PHV drivers will need to look for alternative jobs.

 

[iantao99]

How to read the categories ah.

Company cars - does it include PHV cars owned by rental companies?

What is the difference between PHV (self-drive) and PHV (Chauffeur) ?
Thot all PHV are considered Chauffeur driven?
