[Resolved]  Auto Rickshaw — Fare

I travel frequently travel by rickshaw, especially between Dahisar Check Naka and Hiranandani, Powai. I am quite surprised at the various amounts of fare payable after the travel. They usually range from Rs. 120 to 145. However, giving consideration to the traffic condition, I had till date not thought much about the same. Yesterday, on 1st April 2009 (kindly note this is not any April Fool Joke), I took an auto rickshaw (MH 03 Z 403) from Dahisar Check Naka at about 7.45 - 8am to travel to Hiranandani, Powai. The fare surprisingly was Rs. 175. I had to pay the Rs. 175 as there was no way for me to prove that the fare was quite high as even though the traffic encountered was lesser than usual. I fail to understand the reasons for such high degree of variation in the fares. It seems that the meters are rigged. People say that for travelling between Dahisar Check Naka and Hiranandani, Powai the fare should be about Rs. 120. However in my frequent travels, it was only once that the fare was Rs. 125, as most of the times I had to shell out around Rs. 140-150. I request the concerned authorities to kindly take some action in this regard as this not a phenomenon ristricted to travel between Dahisar Check Naka and Hiranandani, Powai, but elsewhere as well. Thanking the concerned authorities in anticipation of early positive actions. Regards, Vikas R. Joshi.

auto rickshaws — Fares

This complaint is specifically for RTO management to take action against Auto rickshaw drivers who are charging base fares and not as per the new charges being decided by RTO. I had a bad experience in Kothurd Guru ganesh area where just going from inner are to main road they charge Rs 20 and if argued they deny to provide the service. One of them was very harsh and when I argued after reaching main road he didn't stop the auto and took me back to the starting place.

I kindly request to take action against such drivers and make a law for every one to follow.

Thanks

Hi,
I am a daily commuter from IC Colony, Borivali to Dindoshi, Malad East and back. Every day the meter shows a reading of 67 to and fro and the driver charges me Rs. 95/- per trip. Past two months...I have been charged almost the same amount at times it fluctuate like 107 or so...Today I came by MH02VA1259. The meter showed a reading of 125 and he charged me Rs. 160/- and when I told him that this is way too much...and he should rather get his meter changed, he looked at me in a threatening manner. I was made to pay almost double the amount.
Request you to please take strict actions against such drivers. In my opninion their licenses' should be cancelled.
I have raised a similar complaint. Everyday having bad time with auto drivers in Hyderbad.

Expecting a good response from authorities
I had taken a Auto to Koramangala and due to trafic jam the auto was struck in slow moving trafic. the auto driver did not even have patience to move and asked to get down as he was frustrated.
My opinion is even though he made as to get down he had to travel in same trafic jam as he did not had any other way.
why does these auto drivers behave like this.I purely understand it is not the problem of auto driver.It is the problem with government giving them license without understanding there patience level
You give the money take license in India
No use of shouting when king itself is corrupt
Auto number : AP 9 TA 4503.

On 6th Dec'10... i travel daily from Hyderguda to Banjara Hills road no 2 and the bills comes around 70 to 75 rupees but the above mentioned auto meter was running very fast and the bill was Rs. 92/- Instead of paying him 75 i offered him 80 explaining that the meter is very fast. he had an agruement with me. He left the choice on him whether to take it or leave it !

But such incidents spoil our mood and the whole day.

I'm writing this, expecting some kind of action to be taken on such cheats.

Rgds,

Hyderabad police has joined hands with Auto drivers.. no one can complaint against auto drivers.

Auto rickshaw no. DL 1RE 3053
We were three people travelling in the aforementioned auto from Sabzi Mandi, Ghanta Ghar to Tagore Garden. The rent was to be payed by meter. The auto driver forcibly took Rs. 10 extra for carrying luggage. Highly disappointed.

I don't know what higher authorities are doing in this regard. Cheating has been increased and auto rikshaw drivers are charging at their will.
Something must be done in this regard.

Hi,

Even i had the similar experience in Bangalore. I wanted to take an auto from agara junction in outer ring road to parangipalaya in HSR Layout (less than 2 Km). None of the auto drivers were ready to come for an amount less than 30 Rs. I checked with around 3-4 autos and the charges they demanded ranges from 30-45. The 2 KM road is no traffic, no one way and it was around 1.00 PM. Finally i have to take an auto by paying 30 Rs. I checked with couple of my friends and i came to know the auto drivers themself as a group fixed the minimum fare as 30. So the commuters needs to pay if they need to travel. Please do something seriously to force the auto drivers to use the meters.

Regards
Aru
