In the Philippines, it is in the policy of drivers that they are not allowed to refuse to give a ride to any passengers. Aside from that, passengers are the reason why drivers earn their income. Hence, it looks like as if they are refusing to earn some money.
A Facebook User named Zyra Natalie Moleta shared how taxi drivers refused to provide them their service. They are heading from BGC Taguig going to Commonwealth. One of Moleta’s company was ever pregnant, but still, it was not an enough reason for those drivers to give them a ride.
Along with the status, Moleta included four videos that proved how those men refused them.
The drivers gave Moleta lame excuses, while the others simply rejected them.
Moleta’s group even initiated paying for a higher amount, but still, it doesn’t seem to be enough for the driver.
Netizens who had watched the videos were infuriated as the drivers didn’t seem to have any conscience at all. They said that the taxi drivers kept complaining that no one goes for a ride with them anymore, blaming UBER and GRAB to LTFRB. Therefore, most of them suggested that they take the aforementioned service providers instead of dealing with taxi drivers.
Drivers shouldn’t refuse driving for customers no matter how far their destination might be, since they are paying for their fare. Without passengers, would drivers earn at all?
