day to day driving, somedays pax ridership is one up one down, short gaps of empty crusing.somedays we need to sweep at least 20 mins before u see a hand waving at roadside. otherwise hide in good locations, and hope u can secure bookings.
other than that, any good proven method that can max out our potential in securing passenger?
i don't interview pax of their location unless i'm changing shift, otherwise. just pick and carry on. but lately its scary to send pax to airport as the queues there are long. some hotel lobby queue also have more taxi than passengers. some taxi stands, more than the allowed taxis in queues..
Try limo driving la.......
They got more pattern than badminton.......

This one depends on whether you change shift and what time you change shift at.
However, if you need at least 20 minutes to find your first customer in the evening 4-6pm period, may be worth it to speed down to town and earn that extra $3 (actually $2-$2.50 after minusing the ERP) extra. There is normally a long queue in town taxi stands during change-shift period.
You determine yourself whether it is worth it to make that trip by racing down one evening and timing how long you need to race down.
If you start at 4am, then good luck to you as everywhere is short of customers. Your best bet is to make a deal with a regular customer if you could find one and offers him a discount for you to fetch him everyday. All the casinos and at Changi Airport long long queue one. All hotels in town got at least one taxi waiting there.

Very likely the 4am-6am period would be your worst hours on the average for the day.
