cant be too difficult to shout at the taxi driver to put the meter on.

well taxi driver arrived at the hotel, tried to tell me 1500baht ( from don muang)

i told him, ok you take this 300baht and leave right now, or you can try to talk to mike tyson (pointing on my right hand) and the police , pointing on my mobile in my left hand .

he happily took my 300baht, and i told him that i ever see him trying to ripoff a tourist, this will be his last day as a taxi driver...

i just hate it, guys like this taxi driver are giving the 90% of the fair drivers who put the meter on without asking a bad reputation, and tourist a bad impression about the country the second they enter the taxi...
