I have got to know the driver quite well as I'm allowed to call him if I need transport. I asked him about the taxi drivers (he knows lots of them) and this payment of c.QR220 which keeps getting discussed in here. He confirmed to me what someone said in this forum once, and that is the QR220 is divided between TWO drivers. TWO drivers share the car - I guess no driver is going to work 24/7, so they each pay QR110 (or whatever) and use the car on each of their shifts.
I know this isn't really relative to your thread, here, arriattu but just wishing get shot of this 'the poor cabby pays over QR200 before he can take his profit' thing that is always trotted out here.
