hi all.. just started driving relief for my friend..
encountered this before and dunno is there any official rule for this..
say the fare is $8.88, how we are suppose to round off? go for $8.90?
cos many times some passengers take it as $8.80 and so just wondering how to calculate?
Drive safe, eat well and exercise!

If you follow the kiasu (official ???) way, then : round down to nearest 5 cents : $8.88 >> supposed to collect $8.85.
In this case, I normally return $1.20 change for $10 note to avoid trouble.
But sometimes I see what is the easiest change to give back because nowadays people seldom bother about 5 cents either way.
So, example :
1. whether the change is 45 cents or 55 cents, I just give back 50 cents.
2. Fare is $9.05 or $8.95 >>> I return $1.00 change for $10 note.
(So far, no complaints. )
3. Fare is $8.10 >>> I return $2.00 change for $10 note.
But of course some pax might just say Keep the change.
