Taxi Driver Jobs in Highland Falls, NY

A Taxi Driver plays a crucial role in the transportation industry by providing convenient, safe, and efficient transport services to passengers. Their responsibilities include picking up and delivering customers to their desired destinations, helping passengers load and unload their luggage, maintaining the vehicle clean and in good working condition, and adhering to traffic rules and regulations. They often serve as the first point of contact for tourists and visitors, providing critical information about the city, its landmarks, and directions.

Essential skills for a Taxi Driver include good driving skills, customer service skills, knowledge of local geography, and the ability to work long hours. They should have a valid driver's license, pass a background check, and often, taxi drivers need to obtain a special taxi or chauffeur's license to operate. Before becoming a Taxi Driver, a person might have roles such as a delivery driver, school bus driver, or courier, which can provide them with valuable experience in navigation, time management, and customer service.
