  When price surge, paxs will naturally looks for cheaper transport, either MRT, bus or Q at taxi stands, when taxi companies introduce a 2 ways option for taxi drivers, again all kpkb, but UG driver and paxs tiam tiam. Good mah, if you think price surge, and pax on Q or taking taxi fare more, then got more paxs to take mah, if you think price surge, you want to take the higher price, then it is up to you, it will be a direct competition for UG. So, once price fare changes, whether as a taxi, you want to play taxi or Phv role also can...gd mah

  Is it necessary to check engine oil level and top up coolant? Or usually tds leave the tasks to mechanics during vehicle servicing?

  How does tds know when to change new tyres? can they request to change new tyres whenever they like? Or mechanics will decide?

  Drive until dashboard light come out, first...call your girl friend to book tour or room, then call your company tow truck..after that, go koptiam and wait for tow truck, if not kopitiam around, then too bad

  As for tyre, drive until you need a whole car length to brake or that you hear a loud POOOOOOOOK! sound..

  Hearsay comfort car servicing takes 3 hours and SMRT takes only one hour. Seems like SMRT more efficient.

  if you are new, i suggest you don't drive for comfort. 

  they don't allow you to have accident for first 6 months and no complain from pax whatever.

  I believe newbies are more likely to kena complaints. Unintentional errors should be forgiven hopefully.

  For newbies driving taxi 1st time, suggest to drive for SMRT instead of cumfuk. SMRT more human. that's why they call their drivers partners....for a reason one.

  Cumfuk is more for drivers who are submissive, willing to get fcked by their cumfuk operators.

  SMRT operators are more understanding.

  cdg and smrt are actually the same shareholders, just different business entity only, so whether you join cdg or smrt, it goes to the same pocket. Cdg is not say not human, it is more of go by the strict rules, no chance given kind of management. And most who are driving for smrt, TC, etc, majority are trained from cdg until kenna lim kopi, so in a way, there lies the hatre and dislike, understandable. So, in fact as a newbie, in term of taxi, you should join cdg first, it is like army 3 months recruit, thereafter, you get posted out, once you gone thru the basic strict rules of cdg, there is no problem for you to fit into any other taxi companies. And then at the end of the day, which ever companies or apps you join is not the key issue, the key issue will be "Can make money or not?". Today you got Uber and Grab to choose, tia kong their net income per month is $6000. Still drive smlj taxis?

  I believe some tds stick with their company to avoid hassle unless a big difference in rental costs
