Tipping taxi drivers is something many passengers do without much thought. But why exactly do passengers tip for a service they've already paid for?


A recent video by YouTuber and London cab driver Tom Hutley sheds light on the possible reasons, the impact of card payments, and reveals some surprising insights.

The driver begins by reflecting whether tipping was linked to the quality of the journey or did passengers tip regardless, leading to a wider discussion around the motivation behind tipping practice.


The video also looks at the impact of card payments and the possible psychology behind tipping.

Hutley’s insight into tipping behaviour offers a new perspective on the seemingly simple act of giving a little extra at the end of a ride.
