people says drive nite makes a lot .
I experience it now I know.
To summarize ...
day shift ....more pax, less fare
nite shift .... less pax, more fare
Yes, but, please be reminded that in every trade or job, working nite makes more money with less work, if you earn less at nite, then, something is wrong

of course more ... my record takings on both CNY eve and 1st Lunar day ...2nd day also not bad.
drive nite depends a lot on luck ....coz less pax
drive day more pax so luck factor not so impt
OBK has already started 11 pm to 6 am . For all those plan to drive midnite , pls Go home , spend time with family , surf porn site , DIY , kio kway go la kopi , pls dont come and jam up all the Taxi queues.
BCL last nite give up at 3 am. even a fighter like me also call it quits.
hahaha
Driving nite is consider overnite, if I work overnite, I am paid 2 x my wages, and if I do not take my off in lieu, i get paid another 1 x, total 3x, meaning if my pay is $100 per day, I work overnite is 3 x 100, and that is why taxi fare charge 50% more, you must take into consideration of having to work at nite whereas other are at home sleep soundly with gf or wifes and family.

your definition of less work ?
driving nite most of the time empty taxi
do you think less work
so let's say in 1 hour, 30mins no pax, 30mins got pax
you make back the 30min time lost when no pax due to higher fare
i consider working for 1 hour
Hello, at nite the traffic is so smooth, and with lesser paxs, of course less work lah, morning hv to jam, move more slowly, look out of this and that on the road, more strain on you.
