I've been racking my brains recently to cobble together a list of the top 10 questions my amazing passengers ask me day in day out, so here they are!

Hey Mark. My name is Mark as well and I’m a limo driver in Nashville Tennessee USA. We get the same questions from pax except about if the vehicle is electric. Great video.

I am friends with a chauffeur, and he once told me his longest journey was no joke, from Calais, France, through the channel tunnel and down to The Savoy Hotel in London, along with a Siberian Husky in tow. The job, being a chauffeur service, and my friend driving an electric car (Tesla Model Y) cost £745. Had my friend been driving a Mercedes S-Class, BMW 7-Series or other vehicle classified as “First Class”, he would’ve earned 900. Had he been driving an V-Class or similar, he would’ve earned 1500. That is how far some people are willing to go to earn a living.

The only thing you didn't include Mark is that the petrol and electric charges are on top of the rental as with any other rental cab, regardless whether it's the latest hybrid taxi which you are driving or one of the older diesel models, from a fleet operator. So you're looking, driving the model you're renting the TXE, at around or possibly north of four hundred pounds a week before you make a penny for yourself.
@Markstaxidiaries
@Markstaxidiaries Год назад
Correct! I don’t think any vehicle rental ever includes fuel. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻

As someone who works in a taxi dispatch and booking centre, it's the same question I'd ask Tom: Disregarding apps, why is there no comms or dispatch system?

Hi Mark, hope you're well. I'd like to know who was the worst behaved celeb and the worst tipping celeb you ever had in your cab? I realise you can't answer here! Oh, and was your cab parked on Hillcrest Road on Monday night??? (Not stalking you, honest guv!) lol

Love the videos but you really need to get a better microphone and/or monitor your audio. In most videos, yound sound like you're underwater/muffled, following by crackling or volume peaks. It's hell on the ears, especially with headphones on.
