Is a taxi owner or driver permitted to change the taxi’s ride fare?
- Yes, after due notice of 26 days in advance.
- Yes, up to 15% above the determined tariff.
- Yes, 24 hours before the new tariff enters into force.
- Correct answer: No.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: No.
Taxi ride fares are set by the competent authority, not by the taxi owner or the driver. So they are forbidden to change the fare, even with advance notice or by a small percentage above the determined tariff. The passenger pays according to the meter or the official tariff that was set.
