Taxi Companies in Singapore
All Singapore Taxis are fitted with electronic meters; are all air conditioned; are all 5-seaters (including the driver) unless otherwise stated; about 90% of taxis have radio-phones; and call booking is done via GPS or digital voice dispatch. Singapore taxi cab passengers must wear seat belts at all time under the Singapore law. Most Singapore taxi cabs run on diesel fuel, with more Singapore taxi companies turning to compressed natural gas (CNG) for greater savings in the recent years.
