Taxi

A taxi is a vehicle available for hire, typically regulated by local authorities, providing transportation services to passengers for a fare. Customers can request a taxi via streets, phone, or app, and the fare is usually metered or agreed upon beforehand. Taxis operate on demand and are a convenient alternative to owning a vehicle, offering door-to-door service across cities and areas. They are operated by drivers who have professional licenses, and they commonly feature distinctive markings or color schemes for easy identification. Taxis play a vital role in urban mobility, especially for those without access to personal vehicles or public transit.
