name: Daniel Leow
Details: i was a SxRT relief driver for 3 months, and things were going just fine, so i decided to take my own cab from the same company and decided on the merc cab. the bookings were ok, and actually i depended on my own regulars, money was good. 9 days after i collected the cab, BANG! accident, not my fault, AT ALL! some young punk rammed into me while i was at a stop waiting for the pedestrians to clear before turning right, MIND YOU, the light was green! this SMART SxRT 'ADJUDICATE' me to be at fault!!! fine, so be it, and they actually TERMINATE my contract! reason given was, the accident i was involved in, cost too much in repair!!! it was just one rear dor, and the quotation came back $18,500.00 and their surveyor actually gave the go-ahead!!!! if this is not stupid, tell me about it! i actually went to the company, to BEG FOR THEM to not terminate my hire agreement, literally, I BEGGED! know how belowing, and degrading that was, i just want peace, i'll pay maters rest, i continue driving and everybody's happy, letters exchanged, i can show anyone interested, tell me i'm not sincere, and show me a better draft, i can swallow my pride, it's ok. but nah, this SxRT taxi company id the most ridiculous (in the contents of their letters), unreasonable and INHUMANE TO THE UTMOST EXTREME! DO NOT DRIVE FOR THIS COMPANY, THEY WANT TO EAT US DRIVERS ALIVE, and i would become a rickshaw tendor then to ever step foot into this low-life lousy whatever...a company? stupidity has no limits! it's all led by one top-of-the-range idiot named EUNICE LUI! and they are asking me for money in damages, if i ever pay ONE SINGLE CENT to these suckers, damned me to hell forever!

MCC56 Dear Cabbies 
Please be informed that with effect from 1 Jan 2012, any passenger below 1.35m in height and sitting in the front seat of a vehicle is required by law to use a child restraint or booster seat cushion. Those sitting in the 
back seats will not require these restraints. 
For taxis, please politely advise your passengers who are below 1.35m in height to sit in the back seats of our taxis since we do not have child restraint or booster seat cushion in our taxis.

MCC1 name: Peter Tan
enquries: The following message is very useful for the new cabby as well as the existing cabbies.
Sometime ago, I heard someone say that when the passenger board your taxi, you ask the passenger : Which way you want to go? Based on my experience, that is not the good asking. The best is to ask in this way, for example, If the passenger board your taxi from Toa Payoh, telling you to go to Orchard Road.  Your question is "You want to go through Newton Circle or Steven Road?"
The reason is : If you ask the passenger he or her want to go by which way? The reaction of passengers can be many: 1)The passenger may reply that why you do not know the route ? you should know since you are a cabby. The passenger may be really do not know the route or totally new to the area, so the passenger will reply in that way. 2)...... 3)....... etc.
If I ask the passenger based on the above example, you want to go through Newton circle or Steven Road, If the passenger say Newton circle or steven Rd, then follow the instruction. If the passenger say : Any way, then you can tell the passenger which way is faster but cost most, and ask for the approval. This can prevent of not getting the fare when reaching the destination.
Do you agree with me ?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
name: Philip Low
Details: Being a new cabby for just 3 months, I fully understand the true meaning 'You own the business, you work when you like to work' Money earn from driving my taxi is totally related to how many hours I could put in a day and night! So it is time spend to catch your fare. A lot of lucky element, don't you think you so?
Being a Citycab hirer, I need to go online to check my accounts and my online banking. I assume you do that too. So why not check my website (you can create one, after that too) to let 100 people to put one hour of their time for you rather than you work 100 hours just by yourself! The followings are my CityCab572 websites:
1.website.ws/citycab572
2.my.ws/citycab572
or
3 freedom.ws use my citycab572 as your code to get into the free 7 days trial
