乗るときには手を上げれば、止まってくれます、降りるときはコインで手すりを打って音で知らせます。
料金は、乗客から乗客へと手渡し運転手まで届けられます。お釣りは、その逆の要領で戻ってきます。混んだ車内ゆえの効率の良いやり方ですが、その一連の作法に、他の乗客との一体感を感じます。
安くて大変便利ですが、ジプニーは安全ではありません。
A route of each jeepney was fixed, and the end point is displayed on the windshield. We can get in or out a jeepney anywhere on the route. But the person who cannot find the place to get out can not use it.
If you raise your hand when you get in, it stops there. When you get out, you make a sound by hitting the handrail with a coin.
The fee is sent to the driver through passengers via hand delivery. The change returns with the reverse manner. It is an efficient way because of the crowded inside of the car, but I feel a sense of unity with other passengers for the manners.
It is cheap and very convenient vehicle, but is not safe.
