Taxis in new york are painted bright yellow, and the light box on the roof is black? Taxi? In other words, it's just waving to stop the car, but it's more expensive and generally requires an extra 20% tip. If you need to take a taxi, you can try carpooling. In addition, there is a new type of green taxi, which can drive in northern Manhattan and outside Manhattan, except Kennedy Airport and la guardia airport. Due to the heavy traffic in New York, traffic jams often occur in many places. If you have something important to take a taxi, I suggest you go out early to avoid being late.
