4. Asking The Driver How Long It Takes To Reach Destination:
Asking your driver how long it would take to reach your destination is a no! no! no! question to ask if you are a first-time visitor. Why? Because it quickly suggests to driver that it’s your first visit to the area and thereby opens you up for possible misfortune if he does not have your best interest at heart.
You may only have to rely at his mercy for whatever happens to you and your belonging.
So rather than asking him that, you may want to answer that question yourself by reaching out to your smartphone and fire up your GPS App to find out the distance online.
Also and more importantly monitor your radar to be sure he is heading to your destination.
You certainly won’t have much privacy to do all of that without arousing his curiosity if you sit up there in front with him.
Never open yourself up to driver; remember you are dealing with a stranger, someone you are meeting for the very first time. So you’ve got to have some element of doubt in mind.
I would say you install GPS App on your smartphone so you can check online for distance/travel time between source and destination location and as well monitor progression on radar if necessary.
You can strip away any nurtured ulterior motives from him by letting him know that a friend is actually waiting to receive you at your destination.
