With our one-car household policy, we
rely on taxis on a regular basis.
We used to call a taxi station to get a cab. The wait varies between 20-30 minutes. Rates depend on drivers, some charge just right while others charge much more.
The MyTeksi app is the better, faster and safer way to ride taxis in Penang. They do charge slightly higher but one feels much secure.
Once you've downloaded the app, key in your current location and destination.
The app will confirm your booking and will start to look for nearby drivers.
Once a driver is assigned, the app will show the driver's name and phone number, the taxi plate number and the estimated fee.
At times the driver will call the rider to confirm the booking and/or ask for exact directions.
You board the taxi and off you go!
Note though that one needs internet connection to use the MyTeksi app. A RM2 fee is also charged but it's a small price to pay for the safety and convenience of MyTeksi.
