Originally posted by Poolman:Let me share a few stories .
Last year .... a few months after Khoon joined Lake View .
He kena an accident at Portsdown road ..... junction of Queensway .
His handphone besides low batt .... camera also not working .
In any accident case , taking pictures is a must .
He immediately SOS from talkie .....
I was at Benoi Road when he SOS .
His mentor flew in from Toa Payoh .
LV126 went over to help .
I rush from Benoi Road in 10 minutes .
Using my Galaxy tab to photo those damages , photo that China driver driving license and Work Permit .... on the spot , i email those photos into Khoon's gmail account .
Imagine what if Khoon never joined Lake View and no walkie talkie to SOS ?
No doubt taxi companies will give support , but how far taxi companies can do ?
Better than what we can help Khoon ?
Did Khoon pay a Premium for this type of SOS ?
No lah , just $3 a day .
One call finished the story .
Keep it Simple
You Never Left Alone @ LV
and please, state "Advertisement" when it is

Originally posted by Tzarh:Cyben call me lah but only on fri to sun nights kekekekeke....btw i drive wish for now and it wasnt me that honk u kekekekke
Sat and Sun normally i dont drive.. Only when need extra cash..
This is one thing very good about LV.
Never kena myself yet, but have heard mbrs getting accident or car trouble and normally within 10 mins got help turn up.
Same with info esp expressways and ap, saves you a lot of time. You earn peanuts in a jam. Better to drop pax off fast fast and take the next one.
Taxi driving is lonely enough for most people, don't be lone ranger, join a group.
POOOOLLL i wanna join LV but only fri till sun only...got special discount for relief drivers?
Pool, I can join LV or not?
less than $20 overcharge,demerit point plus fine.....

Yes it's good to have friends or join a group, but also can still be lone ranger, if you know your rights and what to do.
Maybe this comes with experience, but really it all boils down to common sense, and maybe even 'dollars and cents'.
Think of yourself as working by the hour, every hour you should earn $x, don't do things that will deprive you of this, unless you want to, say you wanna eat or rest or do some other stuff.
Avoid trouble where you can, got many examples in this forum what to do, whom and where to avoid, what calls to take or not to take, what pax to avoid.
Remember this service we provide is not like a shop where your card is rejected, you can return the goods and not buy it. This is like a restaurant, after eating your meal, you must pay for it. Here the payment is made after the service is provided, so no matter what is must be collected unless there is good reason not to: you went the wrong way or wanna help an old or handicapped person.
For CDG, very simple either use the cashless receipt or call the operator and inform your issue. Let them advise you and follow it, because no matter what if you follow, CDG will pay you back, either from the pax or themselves. I'm sure other companies will hv some policy about this.
