some called me the 'taxi queen' as i take cab very frequently.. can say at least twice a week..
i take a taxi when i am late for work..
when i wanted to lie on bed for a longer time..
when i dunno how to go to the destination by public transport..
especially at night when i am lazy to take public transport..
when i am tired..
when doing OT..
when the journey is long..
when i am drunk..
when going home from monkey's hostel..
and the list goes on n on.. finding excuses to take a taxi.. and now i have decided to control myself.. i can save alot of money by not taking taxis.. i can do it!
i suggest tat the government or the taxi company to impose some rules tat taxi drivers can only drive a certain number of hours each day.. or have some kind of examination once in a year or two.. very often i see taxi drivers lack of concentration when driving n can see tat they dun have enough rest.. some even had two jobs.. they work in the day n drive part time at night.. the other day monkey n i had a very bad experience.. the car was going left n right almost the whole journey.. the driver din brake when the car is already very close to the car in front, if only i could brake for him man! if there are not many cars on the road still okay.. we were on CTE n the traffic was very conjested.. monkey was even praying in his heart tat we will reach home safely.. n when i told the driver the directions, he will say 'huh' n 'huh' making me repeat.. n even wanted to turn when i say go straight! this is the most terrible experience i had.. some would accelerate n brake n accelerate n brake.. making me wanna puke n my stomach feel bad.. of cos cant compare with those premium taxis like mercedes, where the drivers are educated to be polite n helpful n also have good driving skills.. really hope tat this would improve..
i wan a good n comfortable journey every time i take a taxi...
