I took a taxi today with my 10 yr old ds. we take public transport a lot, but taxis are a treat. It was early in the am and there was a line of taxis waiting to pick up passangers. This was in a big city. Should we walk to the front of the line and take the first one, or is it ok to take one in the middle? (the one in the middle was a minivan which we would have prefered).
ETA: No one else was waiting for a taxi so there was no line for them. Also we walked up to the line of taxes from the back if that matters.
Also is there a guideline for how much to tip? I gave the driver $20 for a $16 trip. Was that exceptable?
Sorry if the typing is bad, I am not used to typing on my iPod touch.
Thanks,
Jessica.
