One thing I like about Singapore are the taxi drivers. They are nice and very interesting. Most taxis in Singapore accept credit cards but drivers usually prefer cash. Our driver last night hates it when the fare is only 3SGD and his passenger wants to pay for it via his card. =)
Actually, this is not my first taxi post.

In Budapest its impossible to pay with credit card in taxi. This is still rather a cash only country though everybody has cards already. Great photo!
Twisted, yeah. Comfort Taxis as well. If people visit the 3 Singapore sites, they will be able to see the front, the back and side of Comfort Taxis!
In London some taxis accept Credit Cards, but mostly there is a huge "service charge" so people don't think of paying like that.
ouch , my neck hurts! I agree Singaporean drivers are one of the friendliest :)
ps. i éike the p.o.v. you've taken.
exhilerating beyond words!
thanks guys.
@keropok, yep I noticed! I was hunting for the old london styled taxi, but I can't find one.
:)
feel dizzy again...and I looked the other photo of the taxi...both great photos!
and in Shanghai, some taxis can be paid by credit cards already!
and, the taxi in Singaapore has great blue colour~~~
...hello from shanghai, Jing
the colors are great.
i suppose cash is the most convenient.
interesting angle of the taxi. traffic as usual..
Unusual angle.
Nice perspective. This is how I've felt in taxis sometimes. . .

I think it's an abuse to pay taxi with credit card. Taxi service is not so expensive, isn't it?
I like the colours of those taxis!!
Hey, for a minute I though Neorelix had moved to your city! The tilt-a-whirl school of photography is most often seen at his Cambridge Daily Photo site. ;^)

Exhilarating beyond words, great find!!!
As i usually catch cabs for work, I always pay with "Cabcharge" - a credit card specifically for, and set up by taxi companies.
Great shot, loved the skewed perspective.
Saw your blog about code pal pay redemption - as it is along the same lines I thought I would share this link with you. We were paying far too much for family things like clothes for us and the kids, games consoles inc the new Wii and soon to be PS3, car insurance/home insurance/pet insurance, broadband, mobile phones, landline calls, home and garden items, camping equipment and utilities/loans etc - you name it, we were spending too much on it.
Then a friend of mine recommended a site called www.bargainplace.co.uk. We were able to get cheaper electricity, gas, mobile phone, broadband and loan deals at bargainplace. Thanks to my friend (and the site) I am saving something like £100 a month and can afford an extra holiday abroard each year. Booked of course on www.bargainplace.co.uk. Thanks bargainplace ;-) !!
