Taxi in Singapore during Peak Hour
There is always peak crowd — human and traffic jam — on Fridays, especially at Orchard Road.
We queued for a cab at Paragon Taxi Q for roughly 40 minutes.
To Paragon's credit, they make sure their taxi stand area is pleasantly landscaped, and efficiently manned by queue wardens.
Despite our heavy carriers of shopping bags, we should have walked a bit to the Orchard MRT Station or the Somerset Station, though.
Because this is the bill we got travelling in a cab from Paragon to Changi City Point:-
START JOURNEY .............. 25 January 2013 @ 1850 Hours
DISTANCE RUN - 18.2 KM
TRAFFIC CONDITION - Heavy Traffic along 3-quarters of the journey
METER FARE ..................... = $16.40
ERP ...................................... = $ 1.00
CITY AREA SURCHARGE = $ 3.00
PEAK HOUR 25% .............. = $ 4.10
TOTAL FARE ..................... = $24.50
AMOUNT PAID = $24.40
Fainted.
