When someone gets in my car and they know destination I can give them more or less the price they’ll pay. That fare should be the same every time they do it going forward. If it is significantly different then they can query itYes, I get that.
And Black Hackney Taxis in Glasgow, like taxis in all U.K. local authorities, have a taximeter installed that calculate the fare by distance AND time. But that’s not my point.
My point is, there are no ‘hidden extras’. The fare is right there on the taximeter in front of the passengers’s view. Fully transparent. Not hidden.
