Bangkok Bandits

They seem harmless, they drive really nice cars, but assured that they are eager to take your money. Usually they seem to be very friendly and most speak very good English. Your best chance of a plant in areas where Western tourists, as these are their only prey. Some might argue that modern Robin Hood, which is very close to a statement is true, the caps are actually rob taxi driving.

Everyone should be in ThailandIt says two things to see the cute "tuk tuk", which have largely bolted to a decent life with tourists for their escapades you any jeweler and Schneider, who has even remotely to you

The 2nd thing that they will be with you always tell the meter. I love the story where Joe New Guy (not his real name to protect the gullible) and I were heading to Pattaya and share a taxi stopped and offered to take us only 350 baht. Isaid no, we want the meter and Joe New-Guy said, that sounds like a deal we take it, I said no, we want the subway, or catch me the car next to me. So the logic is based on my belief we went to the bench, and the rate was 150, so Joe, a good sport has taken the full price as a way of thanking me for enlightening him to the reality of Bangkok taxi.

But back to robbing hoods lurk in the vicinity of the western hotels and refuse all that is below 400 baht to takeand not using the meter. The other place you run into them at the airport in the arrivals hall, offers a limousine and then negotiate downward from a Camry to a BMW and are generally 5 times more than if you were to Taxi was charged.

If you look at the front of the cab on the passenger side, is a sign that they are legally obliged to have if you do not want to see, not the cab. If the driver is to say no, out of the car, andThe doors open and feet, thus losing the driver's face, like all Thai people know that consciously you lose him in the face that has just enough slippery. Perhaps we all have happiness and a police officer will see it and see what the problem was and he returns the money to take the form of a stiff penalty.
