Many of you should have known that i just install DVR in my cab. So far a few pax been asking if can use at home lah, how much i bought lah, etc..
Today got one pax, talk talk about the cam, then he ask me if can buy clip of my whole night shift. Just front camera shot, no audio.
Me: What you need it for?
Pax: I'm an Artist, i do some video stuff. Thought it would be interesting to make video of a day in a life of taxi driver.
Me: My shift sevral hours, sometimes 8-10hours driving and if you want whole clip would be few gig of video.
Pax: No problem.
Me: How much you willing to pay?
Pax: *censored* (hehe... cannot say one! but good enough!!)
Me: Ok here's my card, i do some other stuff on the side you can check my website.
Pax: ok you take my email and website also..
My question is, where should i NOT GO during the "filming" he wants night clips, if i drive normally like go airport and other place queue might show cabby smoking and stuff. Not good leh like that
Yah especially if got ahpek cabbies sheeshee on tree sides...maybe yu edit and delete those not naise part off before pass it to him..?? lol
This is trade secret of taxi line and your own copyright. If I were you, I will not exchange that for money as a professional conduct. Whether he is an artist or not, it will not be a practical deal. Tell them to shot themself or download from any source from the Internet.

What I mean is trade secret. You may think this is a joke but this couple want to sell their recipe for $200k.

Alway remember that people have their own interest in wanting your rights to part way, let me give u a real situation that happened in the 70s now at NY, US of A. The cabby then got no cam, so a guy came in, said he like to do a survey on his routine and pay him daily US$3, the guy also will install those old type big camera inside his cab, everyday, he would come around and change the film, that was the old way.
After a month, the cabby get his $90, camera removed and both shakehands and said goodbye. The film was then use in the award wining movie "Taxis" star Robert De Niro that gross over millions.
But of course this are your asset, you can do whatever you want, since people had put a sweet infront of you, it is up to decide.
