Please come to my side of town. Did you know that some areas charge a toll for walking.

If you can't afford $100 then you shouldn't be taking taxis... In any case, he made the expedient choice to pay instead of other options.
The cabbie worked within the rules and the customer agreed to pay...
I do not believe those Guide for Taxi services for Taxis carry the force of law. If I take a look at it from a strictly legal perspective, the fact that he has no change is his problem, and only his. You are offering to pay for services rendered with legal Hong Kong tender. If he took more, then he is committing a theft, because he is taking more money for his services, which is dictated by law. Otherwise, taxi driver's would be calling out prices all the time. You must pay what the meeter reads only.
