I think besides nasty pax, my biggest pet peeve is screaming kids and smelly pax. Can I kick screaming kids outta of my teksi, reason being its a distraction to my driving? LOL
And smelly pax......BO and some pax who dont shower and/or change to fresh clothes after sports! Any experienced driver can tell me how to deal with it? I usually blow the aircon into my face to get rid of the smell but sometimes the odour is just so empowering!
Once I picked up 2 pax who just smoked and probably drank kopi, I really cannot tahan and wanted to puke so i put on my face mask. And i thought if they asked, i just say i sensitive to tobacco. But cannot use this with BO right?
Last Tuesday evening pick up 1 a malay family at geylang serai going to TPY n Hougang. The family child was hyper n throw tantrum from the moment they board my cab. while at CTE going towards TPY the child seated extreme left lift the door handle open and the cabin lights came on. TMD my instant reaction was to tell off the adults in the car to control the child. It is so dangerous!
Jumping kidd i tell patents to belt them, always on child lock. Itd screaming kids i got problem. Feed thrm alcohol too costly for me: ). How? How? how?
I always arm myself with a small oilment bottle in case of smelly pax with Bo, bad breath or just plain smelly. As for rowdy kids, so far no problem I can tahan...
i hate smoker boarding my cab before he exhale the last breath of ciggy smoke. my cabin would be choked. so, what i usually do when i see a pax holding a ciggy while flagging my cab is, i will stop few meters away after him. i know i would still smell the ciggy but not as bad, so i would wind down the window and get some circulation of fresh air inside. also, i have a bottle of lemon fragrance spray on standby, i would 'chi chi' once the pax got down.

Every morning when I take over the cab, I always put to max heater with open ventilation and wind down all the window to clear the bad air inside, works every time....
