 Bangkok taxi fare is much cheaper than in other countries and competition is stiff with low entry bar. If fare rates are higher and taxi license revoked if caught scamming, you get a more well behaved crowd. 

Bangkok Taxi fare much cheaper than many developed countries but not the cheapest in the region!

Shanghai taxis also have gps installed so the company has knowledge of your car location at any time. 

As do the camera-equipped Bangkok taxis.

 

It is what it is, it blows but the fares are still cheap compared to where most of us come from.

⬜   No Meter          - I forgot to turn the meter on, the tasseled magic mat with all figurines covered it, too late now 200 baht.

⬜   FU Tour Time   - You know <insert street>? No?, this best way, very good, no traffic, toll very fast.. You can see building over there? in the opposite direction? no this is other building. this best way.

⬜   Turbo Meter     - No, meter is okay, you have a lot of luggage, makes the car heavy, meter <shakes hand at meter>  knows. The rain too. What's that clicking sound every few minutes? This old car.
