You guys, we are not talking about mapping a taxi call centre, where you use a phone number to order a cab. We are talking about mapping a taxicab queue or stand: a spot where taxis wait for passengers.
Of course if you have 8 people in your part, and walk up to a taxicab stand, they might tell you that you need 2 cars (though in many some countries they will let you pile in to one car with your luggage strapped to the roof.. ). But you will be able to get a cab. If you arrive at the airport in Bali with your in-laws, and look on Maps.me for the closest taxi stand and walk over to it, you will be quite disappointed to find a line of motorcycles, and have to walk back to the other side of the airport to get a cab at the real taxi stand. This is not a problem in your country, because you only have taxicab stands. It will not affect you personally, unless you travel to Asia or Africa etc. -Joseph Eisenberg On Mon, May 11, 2020 at 1:04 AM Marc M. <marc_marc_...@hotmail.com> wrote: > Hello, > > Le 10.05.20 à 01:24, Martin Koppenhoefer a écrit : > > imagine you are ordering a taxi for yourself and 2 colleagues to the > > airport and instead of a taxi (cab) they send you 3 taxi moto.
