Lazy Passapp Drivers.

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

The worst is ones that agree a price, confirm they know the destination, go the wrong way, then can't find where to go until they eventually find it and then ask for more money due to their mistake.

I always ask and ask again to make sure I'm certain they've understood my questions and they're certain they know where to go, still happens but very rarely due to the beauty of apps

I think the worst are the ones who drive towards you to pick you up then stop 200 meters away and send a text saying "I'm here."

We quite frequently get them calling to reassure us they're on the way. First few times it happened, we thought something was wrong, but I think they were just hungry enough to need the fare and were concerned we'd cancel.

Yuh, I wonder about this. I've pinned my location on the map...why can't they see it on their map? Or, is it just to make sure you're actually there and waiting..boo!

They can see it. They just can't read the map and find the pickup spot.

Why?

They are probably worried you cancel their request, I don't see how that's a reason to cancel. Image


I still don't understand how these guys can't read maps. Especially using GPS. Lol
