Taxicab (Taxi)
A taxicab, or taxi, is a vehicle licensed to transport passengers for a fee. When you need a ride, you can hail a taxi on the street, call a dispatch service, or use a mobile app to request one. The fare is usually calculated based on the distance traveled and time spent. Taxis typically operate within cities, offering convenient, on-demand transportation without ownership or driving responsibilities for passengers. They are regulated by local authorities to ensure safety, fair pricing, and proper licensing for drivers and vehicles.
