Welcome Home !!!

Bro Donsan idea seems fair.

LTA : Control number of taxi on the road - up to 15,000. (no increment till we reach an official population of 6 million)

Reduce ERP rate for taxi - 50% of private car. (Exempt will be better)

Simplify Meter fare : $5.00 flag down, every 250m 20 cts, every 20sec of waiting 20 cts
0000-0600 hrs - 50% midnite surcharge
Calls : current - $4, (0100-0500 hrs - $2), advance - $8.
Airport surcharge : $5 (all times, everyday)
CBD Surcharge : $3 (0700-2359hrs) [if taxis exempt from ERP, then this can be scrap]
Animals : $5 per animal.
Vomit in cab : $50

Rules : No waiting for > 10 minutes, No obligation to help load or unload baggages, No loud music, No eating/drinking, No kissing, No making love in cab.
NO CHANGE for $50 if your fare is below $15.00.
No change for $100 note or above regardless how much the fare is. (If that's the only note you got, driver get to keep the change)

Did some changes, should be good for a year or two if implemented.
After that got to adjust again. kekekeke.....

I guarantee you no longer will taxi not stop for you . Not stopping for you is a thing of the past.

Taxis should be exempted from ERP fees. They are part of public transport. If this is not so, how come it is listed in LTA/One Motoring that this is so.
