A private-hire vehicle driver was found guilty of loitering to solicit passengers and fined S$650. The driver, Steven Gan Teck Guan, had offered a man a ride for S$65 at a taxi point. The man, Ranjit Singh, later submitted feedback to the Land Transport Authority, including pictures of the vehicle, after asking the driver if he was touting.

The driver initially contested the charge, making accusations against the authority and the man. Further details of the incident and the court proceedings are available. The case resulted in a fine, highlighting the regulations surrounding private-hire vehicles and their drivers.
