In the end, those who drove on NYE and turned on AA earned a fair bit.
Those who complained and went offline missed the chance...

I also missed it, but that was because of illness tongue.gif

Yup, aa all the way, that's why stuck in the triangle all time for 6 1/2 hours, at last the passenger who heading KLCC couldn't stand it and changed destination to Kelana which had less boost, but slowly moved back to city centre again in order to earn TRIPLE fare hehe.

Some grabbers said they did earn tbb without on aa that night, I believe them, as it happened to me before.

It's ok to miss this time but there's one more chance for you in this year hehe. brows.gif

This is the estimated normal taxi rate on daily basis in Klang Valley.
Taxi Start (Normal Tariff) 3.00 RM 3.00-4.00
Taxi 1km (Normal Tariff) 1.88 RM 1.00-3.00
Taxi 1hour Waiting (Normal Tariff) 25.00 RM 15.00-30.00
3 8.65 RM 13 27.47 RM 23 46.29 RM 33 65.11 RM 43 83.93 RM
4 10.53 RM 14 29.35 RM 24 48.17 RM 34 66.99 RM 44 85.81 RM
5 12.41 RM 15 31.23 RM 25 50.05 RM 35 68.87 RM 45 87.69 RM
6 14.29 RM 16 33.11 RM 26 51.93 RM 36 70.75 RM 46 89.57 RM
7 16.17 RM 17 34.99 RM 27 53.82 RM 37 72.64 RM 47 91.46 RM
8 18.06 RM 18 36.88 RM 28 55.70 RM 38 74.52 RM 48 93.34 RM
9 19.94 RM 19 38.76 RM 29 57.58 RM 39 76.40 RM 49 95.22 RM
10 21.82 RM 20 40.64 RM 30 59.46 RM 40 78.28 RM 50 97.10 RM
11 23.70 RM 21 42.52 RM 31 61.34 RM 41 80.16 RM 51 98.98 RM
12 25.58 RM 22 44.41 RM 32 63.23 RM 42 82.05 RM

52KM 100.87 RM

For the distance in the proton saga you get the boost by itself  with 52KM 100.87 RM. And there is a surcharge for airport ride.

Just thinking aloud, why those who are full time want to grab riders with MYVI or Honda City at RM 65 to RM 75 instead of driving as taxi where they can earn more than RM 100 per trip?  The fare itself is a boost for driving around at RM 1.88 per KM.  doh.gif

During the HNYE , taxi drivers were making thier own time boost where they are asking RM 50 for less than 5 km ride to the hotels. I was there at Fahrenheit drinking and watching the riders getting in for their Shangrila Hotel and Face ride without even negotiating. Tarak tawar menawar tanpa meter.  hmm.gif

Why would you want to spoil your car like that? Hire-renting a cab is like RM 20-40 daily for 4 years with NGV installed. After 4 years the licence is RM 20 a day I think. From there, you can abuse the car to go Genting la, Airport la, etc.

Don't forget, Taxi takes RM 20 flat per day and that's it. Full tank NGV is RM 10 a day and can net somewhere around RM 250-RM 300. If you can't find anyone, turn on the app, if you are familiar wait then wait for hail. Drive at your pace, drive fast, drive slow no diff. Got jam, no diff. All in the meters. Wind down the window and if not going in the direction you want, say sorry, try the one behind, unlimited CR!

I spoke to my father's circle of Taxi drivers, they were so naive. They thought taxi is coming back as business is picking up for them after the protest. Then I told them, "Uncle, your protest didn't do anything la. Grab taking a gun and shooting their own limbs. Grab drivers are cancelling rides because the company is paying them unfairly. People wait for 30 mins then just take Cab loh. July come you all can buy a house and new car already!"

E-hailing is great for part-timers and it should always be that way. That's why PSV was never imposed on e-hailing because you are technically "sharing-a-ride" to a destination. Basically its only for a 3-5 hours run, after work, for side income.

That's how you would want to make a living if you pursue a driving career. Whining about an app that is burning more money monthly than they are making won't change anything. They will continue to burn money until someone buy them out. That's the end game for them.

Well said bro....can we convert our existing car to taxi?do u know the procedure?

Convert your car into commercial vehicle, prior that loan must fully settle everything and apply taxi license. If not mistaken has to change car colour as well.

That's why many going for rent-to-own basis, pay fix amount monthly for 5 years and then the car is yours after that period. Within that period taxi company will bear for the financing of the car, commercial insurance and road if not mistaken.

fruits is a crucial part of fibre there. For me from 9am to 1pm i need to drink at least 1-1.5 litre of water.

When driving for grab for weekend, at morning session i only drink 500ml or lesser and i can feel a bit of constipation from there. I guess water is essential especially morning to afternoon period.

This TB complain to grab by email also took off. Complain under the fb group "Rakan grab" also useless, looking at their reply, they just didn't read the feedback for low fare, take the order no. but no feedback. They just couldn't care less about it.
*
Why drink so less? You know what, I used to bring 5.5l bottle, most of the time I could finish it, and always made my rider's day when they questioned about it laugh.gif Now I bring 2.7l since the 5.5l broken due to car crash. Water is crucial. Don't play with your health. With the removal of HG, the best part is we can take our own sweet time to rest at intervals of driving.

Btw I'm the braveheart that you talked about, NYE the whole night I was at bb fighting for you haha, but I managed to sneak in sneak out around KLCC, the so-called worst place. As I said earlier, when most cannot stand the traffic, I can, like our legend, must overcome it, what I scared is not traffic jam but no jobs.

Yesterday got Sabah driver in group...get RM112 fare for 95km trip. then go back empty...

No problem, if given to any driver in Sibu everyone will drool for that, can even give you discount. People here are low paid and desperate. There are many drivers in Sibu who would drive empty car to airport and wait for customer there for hours, back and forth = 50km for RM30 trip.

Grab Klang Valley: Each week, we check for unusual traffic events where a large number of driver-partners in the same area at the same time had made significantly lower earnings compared to the hour's Time Booster amount.

We have found that some of your trips during Time Booster hours last week had met these criteria. As such, we have made a top-up to your cash wallet to help offset the impact of congestion on your earnings.

Kinda unexpected from Grab.
But still is hard to satisfy everybody. No logic or explanation how they compute that these group of drivers got underpaid.

E-hailing is a platform for part time lovers who can moonlight for extra income after their office hours. And most bosses would not permit thier staff to do it as it may distract thier actual work or those who sneak the company time to cruising riders around town. And those who dun cherry pick thier route or riders may ended up late for thier work or appointment. Imagine the bosses seeing thier staff with Green Grab logo once the law by JPJ takes effect in June. Especially when thier sales staff quota are not met or coming to work late hmm.gif

Dat's why I really wonder why some got new cars plastered with Grab advert to grab attention and riders. As for full timer, does it makes ringgit and sense to Grab riders confused.gif
