Passenger sings karaoke in Grab taxi
A Thai user, Songpon Hompana, wrote about his atypical cab experience in a Facebook post while using Grab’s service on Friday, 22nd April.
His impromptu karaoke experience took place in a Grab taxi while Songpon was on the way to work in the middle of the night. The OP was asked by Grab driver if he wanted to sing a song.

Once the OP answered “hell yeah”, the taxi driver handed over a microphone to Songpon and turned his taxi into a moving karaoke bar – complete with strobe lights.

From the clip, it’s obvious that the OP did appear to enjoy singing karaoke so much so that he wished the car ride had been longer.
He even shared that he would hire this Grab driver to escort him all the way to his hometown in Nakhon Ratchasima if he had the chance.
