Surely a better way is to allot 200baht as an intended tip, but if the driver has a lead foot and goes too fast, tell him to slow down or no tip !! They get tips straight in to their pocket, I'm not sure about payment through their company, maybe they have to wait and only get their money once a week. This would mean that the 200baht "carrot" on offer becomes very attractive to them and therefore the fear of losing their night's "beer money", may just slow them down.

Works for me.
