sounds good.
This makes lots of sense as part of a policy to incentivise the use of public transportation.
like I really wanna ride one in the first place
Cool...Now all we need is for the taxies to actually stop for the passengers...
i*maginate :) Well, there are occasions when the car is in the garage for a day and you can't be bothered to rent a car for just one day.. you will either have a second car or will take a taxi.
But yes, I rarely have pleasant experiences in ones. I don't really enjoy being in the company of depressed or angry people. Not to mention the odors that some have. Yeah, thank you very much.
a step in the right direction, hopefully.
Is anyone having trouble accessing facebook? Its not coming up blocked, just not loading at all...
it took 1 hour for a taxi to stop from me yesterday
imagine...standing like a dog on the street waving at them and they just pass by
DE - yeah I know all that crap and taxis are a last resort for me. I would rather pay double Salik and ride a camel under the gates. At least I'd be deriving lengthy pleasure that way.
There is a catch. Now u have to pay 20 Dirhams extra to go to Sharjah !
i just booked one for tomorrow lets see if he charges me for it.
Frustrated im having the same problem. on the first try it comes as network unavailable but then if u click on the link again it loads if not try mozilla instead and do the same it takes 2 tries lemme knw how it goes
i*maginate & DE
Camels do smell much better!
As they say one man meat is another man's poison or is it....To each his/her own!

Hopefully next step will be no salik on Fridays and national holidays, like paid parking...
P.S. why comment moderation is still enabled? I remember it was enabled long time ago but didn't imagine it will stay enabled all that long! Is it going to be a permanent rule?
vote for educating taxi drivers!
