Chris Daley Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 (edited) They are rude, no map, no gps, and they usually have no idea where they are going. I am surprised more taxi drivers aren't attacked. Edited December 5, 2023 by Chris Daley 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IamNoone88 Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 Typical Phuket taxi mafia. Together with the lunatic aggressive van drivers they feel totally untouchable. No need to even mention the tuk tuk drivers with loud blasting music ...... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was a taxi driver using an app (mostly likely Grab, Bolt or in Drive).. which uses Maps... The attack was most likely other taxi drivers who refuse to use such Apps and instead protect their 'turf' by attacking those who do, so they can maintain elevated prices and rip off customers... in otherwords... The scum known as 'taxi mafia' attacking an honest App Taxi trying to do his job. 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
