How to use taxis in a sentence?

1. Flavien Neuvy:

   But the lack of taxis at certain hours has probably favoured Uber in France, and it's true that car sharing has developed most of all in France over long distances, where there are no cheap buses running.

2. Rachel Landman:

   VW Kombi are no longer common in Uganda, they ceased to be used as taxis and buses in 2000.

3. Matthew Daus:

   Expediency is overriding safety, taxis and limos are still required to abide by the old, more stringent rules, but Uber and Lyft have a free for all. It's become the Wild West.

4. Ricardo Gonzlez:

   There is no public transportation, no taxis, people outside the city remain blocked outside and tomorrow will be the same.

5. Yared Tesfaye:

   The train will not solve all transportation issues; its users are mostly long distance travelers. People use taxis firstly because it's cheap, secondly because they stop frequently between small distances, in Addis Ababa there's a population of four million people of which 3.5 million are minibus taxi users. The train is expected to transport around 1.5 million people. We taxi drivers will probably transport the rest.
