Very interesting facts. It is hard catching a taxi on the street anymore; the taxis are waiting at major buildings or running around with advance bookings. Advance bookings because the drivers charge a surcharge of S$3.50. On top of that, there are peak hours surcharge as well. About S$3.00. Surcharge this, surcharge that. You better start walking or take the MRT (subway). Subway, only if you can stand the "sweaty" smell permeates in compartments once you get on. I was quite surprise that there is not enough ventilation for body odour.
Yes, back to the taxi. You can get a variety ranges of models. From Corolla to Benz, same price, same metering.
When we got on a taxi at the Singapore airport, it was a Benz. The driver trashed the interior pretty good though; stapled Xmas decoration dangling through out the ceiling. On the dash and on the back, more Xmas decorations. Didn't need more reminding anymore after exiting that taxi.
