Recommended Posts

I am wondering if some of you guys might know what the difference is between the one colored taxi and the two colored taxi in Bangkok. Is it different ownership or what is it??

 

Happy for your input guys...

Bangkok’s taxis are actually color coded. The single-color are company taxis, personal taxis in cooperation or alliance and rental company taxis. These color include bright green, bright sky blue, red, orange, yellow, blue, pink, purple, violet and tan. The bi-colored taxis are in 3 kinds including yellow-green, red-blue and yellow-orange. The yellow-green are the personal private taxi. The red-blue are the rental taxi. The yellow-orange are the company taxi.

 

What a great 5-year old link!  According to that garbage, "The single-color are company taxis, personal taxis in cooperation or alliance and rental company taxis".

 

It then goes on to contradict itself with..."The yellow-green are the personal private taxi. The red-blue are the rental taxi. The yellow-orange are the company taxi".

 

So the personal taxis, rental taxis and company taxis are single colour and also bi-colour!  Brilliant.

No, it doesn't contradict itself

Tan colour Taxi's are dirty White ones, or very old + the Sun has done its work

I think I may start using green yellow, to support owner operator.  Seems like they have more at stake, than the solid ones.
