Drivers pressed for a fare review, arguing that Kaohsiung’s delayed-time meter remains out of step with other cities. According to Kaohsiung’s official taxi fare table, the meter adds NT$5 every 100 seconds when the speed falls below 5 kilometers per hour. TVBS noted that Taipei uses NT$5 every 60 seconds, and that Kaohsiung drivers say the gap matters more now that concerts, tourism and congestion often make trips slower and more labor-intensive.
