The Mabuhay Group recently launched its fleet of black taxicabs. More than just a new cab color, the black taxi will debut topnotch technology for public transport in Davao City.
The transport innovation was the idea of Pierre Ryan Tan, assistant manager of Mabuhay Taxi, who thought of addressing the passengers' common complaints against taxi drivers who do not give exact change.
The taxis will accept payments from Bancnet and Megalink ATM and debit cards.
"It also has an emergency button. It has a security feature that will automatically inform us of the driver's location, engine on, engine off," added Tan.
Leoloy Nahi-al said that the innovation would not only benefit the riding public but the drivers of the black taxis like him, as well.
"I think our income will also increase...commuters won't have second thoughts riding a taxi because they can use their ATM in case they don't have cash," Nahi-al said in Filipino. - with Aliana Gimena
