  One door loss is it equivalent to other heavy damages to other parts of the taxis? Last time about 3yr ago, I saw a lot of taxi doors at TAN LIM MOTOR in Defu for TC. I dun think CDG Loyang and SMRT Woodlands have no spares doors? All tactics use by the company and workshop to claim more monies from drivers. But if driver is a fault, then he really have to bear with it, why? Because he did not stop in a safe way for pax to board or alight.

  100% no chance. GIAS (General insurance of Automotive Singapore) uses the BOLA Chart (Barometer of Liability) to determine whose is at fault to speed up insurance claims. Unless ur friend have video evidence that it was done intentionally. No hope.
