Taxi drivers watching TV shows while driving passengers

Featured Replies

Something I've been noticing recently is TVs inside taxis - in the front so the driver can watch DVDs or actual streamed shows while driving you! There is also a modification they are doing to fit a smartphone into the centre of the dashboard, streaming shows the whole time.

 

I've already been with 3 drivers over the past 2 months doing this and yes they are actually glancing and watching the screens. This is so unsafe, unfair to customers and downright dishonorable.

 

I mean people are paying you to drive them safely to their destination, the least you can do is not watch TV while you do your job right! They need the added entertainment for themselves?

 

Crazy!

I've been here quite a while but this attaching smartphones to the dashboard thing seems recent. The old DVD player with LCD screen yes I know.

 

That smartphone is not their regular phone by the way, they have another one specifically for calling. Guess they must be doing pretty well :)
