cab Vomit Surcharge
这不叫罚。 因为病人也好，酒鬼也好，只要在德士车上吐，就已经给德士师傅带来了极大的不便，接下来他不但不能载客，反而还要花上好几个钟头来清洗车里的呕吐物，还要让车里的臭酸味慢慢消除，这段时间的损失谁要来负责。当然是那个吐在车上的人啦！
你以为是病人就大事啊？人家可是靠德士来谋生的，你不补几十元给人家，还期望人家因为你是病人而不跟你计较，那太自私了吧！

如果是病人呕吐， 也照样罚？

吐的是洋酒（XO, Hennessy) - SGD 200 吐的是啤酒 - SGD 20 吐的是啤酒（还是冰的）- 喝回去算免费

当然合理啦 , 你吐了就下车睡觉 ,司机还要洗, 抹, 吹干, 免得留下臭味结果 是没有收入, 还多一份工. 附加费要$70/- 才够.
如果生病, 记得拿纸袋, 加上 , 上车时先'知会' 德士司机. 最后劝你一句 , 不会喝, 不要 '假利害' .
我就是一个身体弱,常常会在德士上呕吐的人

我倒觉得很合理。把别人赚钱的工具弄脏，补钱是应该的。而且清除后可能还有异味。

Driven round the bend by cabby with poor English

Driven round the bend by cabby with poor English
Driven round the bend by cabby with poor English
LAST Thursday at about 9pm, my husband, who is from England, hailed a cab from our home in Segar Road, off Bukit Panjang Ring Road, to pick me up from the renal centre near Chinese Gardens.
He told the driver in clear English to take him to Chinese Gardens and the cabby said 'Chinee Gardens'. My husband corrected him umpteen times but the cabby kept repeating 'Chinee Gardens'. When the route he took was not familiar, my husband told him he had taken the wrong way, but the cabby insisted he was right.
They ended up at Changi Gardens. My husband was frustrated and upset, paid the cabby his fare and took another cab home as he could not reach the renal centre in time. Needless to say, our night did not end well.
Singapore has emphasised the need for workers to speak Mandarin so they can communicate with Mandarin-speaking clients. How about training people to speak clear and precise English so they can communicate with English-speaking clients, who make up the majority?
This is not our only experience with non-English-speaking people in the service industry. A female server at Haagen-Dazs in Holland Village once asked us to speak Mandarin. I have no problems if people want to speak Mandarin, but please do not behave as if other languages do not matter.

How to prevent a 'gutter' taxi service

Taxi-drivers are self-employed, not salary-paid staff by any employer and therefore, they don't owe any commuter a living. If talking about commuter's rights, taxi-drivers also have their own rights as a self-boss, self-employed person. They can choose commuters and reject those who they think are suspicious and may rob them. Or reject those which are not along the same way as they are changing shifts or going home, so as to cut time loss and petrol cost. Blame the system of taxi-operators who does not want to hire drivers as salary staff. And pass the bulk of cost to the taxi-driver who in return, has the right to choose and pick commuters who directly affect their cost computation. By the way, I am not a taxi-driver.

Can cabbies refuse customers

If taxis queue at a taxi stand, it is also a clear indication the drivers are waiting for a fare. Don't argue with picky drivers. Just note down the details like date, location, taxi license no, time etc, and send these to LTA/Taxi Co.

The moment a taxi which you have flagged down stops, open the rear door, and get in. Thereafter, you tell him where your destination is. If a taxi driver is on its way to a phone booking, is changing shift or is going for a break ( meals/toilet etc) he would normally just whiz you by. The fact that he stops is incontrovertible proof he wants a fare. I always got into the taxi first, and then told him my destination. That way, he could not justify not taking me to my destination. Hope this helps. Alternately, video the entire episode and send the details of the driver, with the clip to LTA/Taxi Co for further action.
