A lot of Singaporeans are taking necessary precautions to prevent the Covid-19 virus from spreading.

This includes washing hands with soap more frequently and wearing masks when one's unwell.

But one Grab driver in Singapore has taken things many levels above the rest.

Self-isolation

On Mar. 3, Facebook user Xiao Ma Bay booked a Grab to travel from Hougang to Kinex in Paya Lebar.

Expecting a regular Grab ride, he was pleasantly surprised to see this when his car arrived:

The Grab driver had set up a full divider made of plastic sheet to isolate himself from his passengers.

Hand sanitiser for passengers

The driver also seemed considerate, based on the bottle of hand sanitiser taped to the passenger seat.

Xiao was so amused by this sight, he even took a selfie in the car.

How to accept cash payment?

The post has since gained more than 700 shares and 300 reactions.

And many people had the same question in mind: How does he accept cash payment?

The answer, unfortunately, remains unknown.

This isn't the only private hire driver that has gone to extreme lengths amidst Covid-19:
