Yesterday, a taxi driver’s thread on Twitter who wasn’t ashamed of obscene language, describing what infuriated passengers and why they lowered their rating, began gaining popularity. The first tweet of the topic at the time of writing our material was viewed 635 thousand times, and the topic itself caused a huge amount of discussion and comments on the social network.
We examined the main points that cause anger in taxi drivers. Read below!
- Taxi driver sees your score – and just that. Therefore, it is up to him to decide whether to take the order or not. If your score is low and you have an order outside the Moscow Ring Road, you should not expect a good driver from such a combination.
- Wrong landing point – telephones are usually located on the side of the street, courtyard, etc. mixed with. If you want to call a taxi driver to circle, walk around or come elsewhere, expect a refusal.
- Order on the highway or subway. If you don’t wait exactly at this point, the driver will start getting a penalty for stopping in a prohibited place. We don’t think this will have a good effect on the passenger’s rating.
- Unscheduled stops. If you didn’t specify when ordering to stop by for coffee, a friend, or a cat, expect trouble. To prevent this from happening, save the route in the app immediately.
- Exit button. Pressing this and walking elsewhere for about five minutes is disgusting, according to the author of the thread. Only press if you’re already going out.
- Cash payment. Taxi drivers do not have coins with them, and it is not easy for them to look for thirty rubles for you.
- cheat. When they want to break/rush and promise a tip. Then they don’t leave. Fair enough.
- Garbage and household rudeness. Here is the anti-degree of behavior in a taxi car: leaving garbage, not brushing your feet, spilling drinks, smoking without asking.
- animals It’s simple – always call a marked taxi and never call a regular taxi if you need to transport an animal. What if the driver has allergies?
- Drunk/unfriendly customers. Customers who act provocatively. No comment.
And a few more unexpected elements that, according to the author, affect your score: ordering a taxi to the gypsy club, a subscription to Yandex Plus, breathing loudly, and if you called a taxi to change.
