We have several long time friends that are red plate drivers and we usually call them when we need a ride. If they are not available we will use the red plate route taxis. The route rate is $100J pp. The beach road is one route and the cliff road is a different route. If I want to go from the beach to the cliffs and don't feel like changing taxis I will offer the driver $300J pp. $100J for each route and $100J for jumping the routes. This is usually accepted but if it's not I will wait for the next driver to stop. If I want to make a stop and have the driver wait I will add $100J pp for every 10 minutes he has to wait. I have used this formula for years and never had a problem. If you use a driver and get a good vibe, ask for his card or number and call him when you need a ride. If he is available he will appreciate the business.
Bless...
