Just don't get in a parked one, you could be waiting ages for them to fill it up Edited August 11, 2023 by Pattaya57 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not wrong… they have specific routes they are supposed to take as a bus. If they divert elsewhere with a bus passenger on, you can report them. They won’t make trouble if they are already in the wrong. So I simply don’t believe you that he asked you to get off AND to pay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just after that overhead bridge up the hill going ( don't know the name) but has small soccer sports court under it. The bus stops for 6 indian guys , they talk to him and jump in the back. He jumps out and approaches you as you sit in the back and says they are going in a different direction and tells you to pay 10b for that short ride, and can catch another one. Do you pay the 10 baht and jump out ? Of course I do. Its 10 baht. Only a loser would argue over 10 baht. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually it does. A few years ago, SWMBO and I were returning by bus from Ekkamai, with luggage. We negotiated a ride home from the Nua bus station to the darkside, 100baht, which I thought was pretty fair. The driver did not lrave immediately, he waited until he had a full load, and then proceeded to Jomtien Beach Road via the hill, dropping people off at various points on the way. When we were the only passengers left, he turned up Soi Wat Boon, and stopped on a piece of waste ground (it was not so built up in those days). He climbed out and demanded another 200baht to take us to our home in Nongkabok. This after the best part of an hour farting about in Jomtien! We got out and walked with our cases to the nearest bar, after informing him I only wanted a ride, not to buy his f.....g taxi, and would pay him nothing unless he fulfilled the contract. Probably fortunately he did not speak or understand enough English that it mattered! I took a motorbike taxi home, for 100baht, and went back with the car to collect SWMBO etc. With a foul temper!
