ISSUE 71 (26 August - 15 September 2023)

Dear Cabby,

Location Surcharge During

Singapore F1 Night Race

Singapore F1 Night Race is happening from 15 to 17 September 2023! 

There will be a location surcharge of $8.00 for every trip originating from any of the F1 designated taxi pick-up points and driveways. It will start from 10.30pm to 12.00am on 15 September 2023 (Friday) and from 9.30pm to 12.00am on 16 and 17 September 2023 (Saturday and Sunday). 

This location surcharge comes on top of the existing metered fare and other surcharges.

Road Closures for

Singapore F1 Night Race

Some roads in the Marina Centre and Padang areas will be closed for a week from 13 September because of the Formula One night race.

Small In Size, Big In Space!

Check out the new six-seater petrol-hybrid Toyota Sienta taxi that we are trialling from 5 September for six months. Although it is small in vehicle size as compared to a MaxiCab, its boot space is big enough for as many as four mid-size luggage - which is especially useful when picking up passengers from the airport. The flagdown of the Sienta taxi is $4.30. All other surcharges, including extra passenger surcharge, apply. 

Cabby Helped Passenger's

Unwell Son!

When his son had motion sickness and vomited in the ComfortDelGro taxi that they were on, Mr Edward Ei, was sure the cabby would be upset. 

But that was not the case. 

Not only was Cabby Neo Kim Choon not upset, he stopped the taxi at the side of the road to check on Mr Ei's son, and even helped to clean the mess off him - a gesture that touched Mr Ei. 

For doing what he did, Cabby Neo has been given the Thumbs Up Award!
