I think basically, the relationship between the taxis driver and the pax must be a mutual one, as said by some here, first, ask if Taxi uncle do not mind a $50, and as a Taxi driver, even if he do not have changes for a $50, he should inform the pax politely and the solution can be done by deciding on making a change at a petrol kiosk or 7 eleven, or coffe shops.
Unlike food centres or shops, a $50 can be changed easily as many stalls are around, taxi do not have that luxury. If both the pax and the TD have that mutual understanding, I believe that even a $100 bill can be settle, and we can end up having a happy cabby and a happy pax.
However pax should not take advantage in cases whereby the fare is $12 and the pax said to have only a $100 note and a $10 notes resulting in the TD taking the $10 and forgo the $2. I had met one of these kind before, Knn..give $1000 note, i also change for you.

so if assuming the fare is between $20 & $23, would you mind accepting a $50..

Sure, why not, just return two $20 notes and a few $2 notes. Frankly, not that many time we get $20 and above fare, others i do not know but for me, maybe the most 5 times per shift I get a $20 and above fare, mostly I will change it during my teabreak and lunchtime, buy food and drink using the $50, then buy some fruit using $10 to get coins and $2 notes.
We are reasonable people, whether you give $30 or $50, it is still money, just the matter of changes, which we believe can be settle amicably if both parties come to a perfect understanding that we taxi driver also cannot bring some much $10 dollars with us and that pax also can at time, in a rush, got only big notes. And usually for those below $10 fare, paxs use to give us a $10 notes, in fact, we need more $2, $5 and $1 coins. Usually local pax will count to the 10 cents, for foreigners or tourist, mostly will be, keep the change. Then we go lim kopi liao

Usually if I estimate my fare to be about $20 I will use a $50 note
If I don't have smaller notes on me and I don't think my fare will be that high, I'll ask the taxi uncle if he is ok with a $50
