Taxi metered fare system is always the fairest way. You sit inside my car how long, you get charged accordingly. I sit in the car jam with you, I get compensated fairly. You book but haven’t turn up when I arrive, either I start the meter or we cancel this job. No AR/CR and waiting time grace bs. You want to go by your route, no problem, meter charge accordingly. You want additional drop off, meter will run irregardless, no such thing as free additional distance. No driver rating bs. (Which is also why you also see many taxis driving and attitude is f-up.) No 20% comm to vendor. PM peak town surcharge $3. With booking, $10 inside pocket the moment pax board. Peak hour islandwide auto surcharge, no such thing as see your location and if I heng i got surge. Nobody control the way you want to earn with bs like driver timeout.
Phv, spend average of 1 hour on the road daily idling for free. Average pax waiting time 3mins x 20 trips.
Why I never take taxi instead? Because when I first started, I wasn’t 30 yet, couldn’t take tdvl then.
Second reason is rather ridiculous to some, I wanted a car then I can still go out and 见人, taxi has a certain social stigma whether we want to accept it or not, and I wanted to be able to drive into msia freely anytime.
