As a newbie, I hesitate to suggest to an advanced member that he only has to dive into this site and he'll find dozens of answers to his query, especially in this one thread:

I think that is a more balanced thread, can be found in the Transport section of the board.....

She is the best. Always on time safe and clean car and will let you hit 7/11 and get your drinking started on the drive to Pattaya.

.. members might find useful a list of forum member recommended WOMEN-OWNED AND OPERATED TAXI services  .. http://www.pattaya-a...nded/?p=2962859

 

.. if you've not travelled here often, you would do well to select women drivers, rather than the men .. a number of threads on the forum highlight the quality of their services and preferences by forum members.

.. not pre-booking a ride is still pretty common amongst visitors .. taking a brokered, or a street-side taxi is not a problem, until it is a problem.

 

.. my opinion, living here since 2000? .. it generally takes time for visitors doing touch-and-goes here to fully gauge that the cost of failure in Thailand (at many levels) is easily far, far greater than back home.

 

.. bad shit is not confined to the bar gurls, the risks about whom I am sure you do know .. or, the risk of being in a road accident and in need of emergency hospital treatment .. or, raising your voice into a gaggle of aggressive Lady boys .. or, being unsuspectedly caught at breakfast by the BIB without your passport .. and then, you find religion .. it is nothing like back home .. nothing.

 

.. when the dice roll unlucky (and taxi brokers are a gamble, simply speaking), and it does happen to you, it can be bloody nightmarish, finding yourself in the backseat of some boorish suicide monkey's car, in the middle of nowhere, at night, speaking little/no Thai, with no one to call and no way out .. the situation is widely known by most anyone who lives here, or travels here frequently.

 

.. until these women-owned businesses opened, I always used Mr. 'T' and PT Taxi .. I am local enough to deal with the occasional asshole I was sent, but still a decidedly unpleasant experience that always left me pissed-off enough to fucking strangle kittens.

 

.. Mr. 'T' and PT Taxi have a phone, an e-address and a list of names, which they use to broker drivers only, many of whom are responsible drivers .. but, they have little/no control over who they are sending out, and zero control over what they do .. they are to taxi brokers a commission only.

 

.. give one of the lady services a try .. I guess lady drivers are not for everyone, but I offer them up as another choice, and good, sure choices here in Thailand are valuable .. these ladies will earn your patronage .. why risk waiting about for an eventuality that will ruin the beginning, or end of your holiday? .. really.
