Shanghai Taxis by mike53
Many taxis are reluctant to travel over the river to the Pudong side of the city and i have on three occasions now been asked to get out of the taxi becuase they refuse to go,it is worse when it raining becuase they always have many customers travelling short distance and at 10rmb min fare they can earn more money in short trips than the 25 rmb or so that it costs to go to pudong area.If this happens to you the best thing to do(unless you want to argue in Chinese) is find one of the many city center hotels and get your taxi there,they will not refuse to go to Pudong when they pick up at hotels.
