Which of the following responsibilities do for-hire drivers have towards their passengers?

For-hire drivers have a responsibility to provide fare information to their passengers. This includes clearly communicating the cost of the ride, any additional charges that may apply, and explaining the fare calculation process, especially in the case of metered services. Keeping passengers informed about the fare fosters transparency and helps build trust between the driver and the passenger.

While creating a pleasant atmosphere, such as a quiet environment or providing refreshments, may enhance the passenger experience, they are not mandated responsibilities. Similarly, while a driver might choose to wait for a passenger, especially in the case of pre-arranged rides, there is typically a reasonable time limit due to operational needs. Thus, ensuring that passengers are informed about fares is a key professional obligation for for-hire drivers.
