$107.35, like that is example of 5 fig.
Many people avoid their taxi dues to their high rates. I doubt they will be able to earn that amount.

Yes , they have their own ways of marketing , their very own unique base on hardcore customers base , integrated with SMRT's corporate clients . So basically , possible .
Trade secrets i know .

but i think maybe because the friend say the drivers and some of the staff in the company says more and more people accept taking and booking the Big Car now
of course the only way is to pull strings with connections...
e.g. high rollers from majority of those indonesian chinese who book your taxi to ferry him/ her to shopping trips and casinos.
Possible...
That explanation sounds logical.
if tat TD can eat, sleep, n even shit n bath (basically do everytin in his daily life) inside his taxi, then $10,000/- of course no problem.
another way is to put a robot at the steering wheel.
I got a mate who drive chrysler taxis, he borrowed from me 200 hundreds, 2 months already, still hv not paid me a single cent, if he earns 5 figures, how come I never get back a single cent. Now he still drive the chrysler, everytime ask him, he said, no money, family needs, so end up, he drive chrysler, I cry si lar
if any taxi driver are to make some loans from friends , he/she ...either gambler lost at casino , lost underground soccer betting , lost $$ 4D , womanising etc .....
A normal cabby without such hobbies , i dunno about others , everyday cabbies have those cold hard cash .
What is $200 ?
being a taxi driver has finally taken a toll...someone seeing a 5 figure salary from another dimension.
5 fig? I also want ah... how come those Chrysler drivers never seems to be smiling? Only a few are seems happier. Most of them have slacken, even their attire.
bring tourists to 'tai tow tiam' and make commissions. possible.

More of loan this and loan that, why not, go courts can buy everything, just take the loan, enjoy first, talk later. It is good for TD to venture out to do other business, but not using the taxis as a tool which valid the laws. Just like my army time COC, do anything you like, just don't get caught. My OC lagi good, he said, when you want to cheat, cheat big, don't go and cheat those kacang puteh amount and get caught, not worth.

The chrysler driver who actually netted an MP's monthly allowance without flouting LTA regulations surely has no time to eat properly, drink properly, sleep properly, shit properly, pee properly and certainly got no time to shop for LV bags. After one month of MPS (meet the performance saloon), he would have aged by a year. No smiles and very haggard looking.
This a real data from two Sonata drivers A and B. as from today morning, after that go for breaktime at10.40am.
Both drivers are from two town not the same starting points, note.
This is what i got from them the printout.
The reason is just for sharing, this are actual outing a normal dayshift driver is doing.
If 5k that easy, than why are you still waiting?
how can that Black Chrysler do wonderful things and Sonata can't do as good as them.
Black Chrysler never do street run only lobang, how can that be?
Seen many of them been rejected by road paxs, and only hopping into Sonata any other normal cabs.
How much they can earn as like this 2 half hours Sonata without 35% surcharge, as like today. no corporate clients.
So 5k is very questionable?
Sonata drivers.

I have got a LakeView colleague ....
He said after he passed his TVDL , he also like any other drivers , chiong OMO .
He chose to OMO a Silver Kia .
He said during his first month , drove average 15 hours daily , nett income $10000 .
Second month .... punctured . Accidents several times . Resigned from Premier .
That was before he joined LV .
It is possible to get $10,000 .
Not everyone .
But certainly for some newbies .
First few months very aggressive .
But for how long ?
15 hours daily .... 31 days consecutive .
Very easy to die one like that .
Morning sleep , 2pm start work .
6am stop work .
Sleep .
2pm start work , 6am stop .
What the f*ck ?
No life .
Taxi > Sleep > Taxi > Sleep > Taxi > Sleep .
To actually calculate how they get $10000 each month .
Very easy one .
$10,000 divided by 31 days .
As in per day net profit $323 .
$323 plus rental $150
Daily collection before diesel $473 .
Say he consumed $50 diesel .
Total he must succeed in collecting is $523 .
If u divide per hour basis , for 15 hours .
Per hour he must succeed in getting $35 .
For Chrysler , per hour to get $35 , personally i think it's possible !!
As what i know , Chrysler their group networking quite good .
Again , fundamentally , if one has good personal contact . Maybe for some "hot" month , $10000 is achievable .
But never i to believe , everyday Sunday .
But that Chrysler must work 15 hours everyday !
For how long he can go on ?
That's the million dollar question .
