m********y 发帖数: 2 | 1 Just checked my credit card activities. What surprise me is that the same
taxicab company charged me
two times. The first time is $46.75 on Jan. 20. The second time is $47.00 on
Jan 23. I took the cab only on
Jan 20, and the receipt is $ 46.75. By the way, the driver is an Indian.

It depends on conditions, so I have included an article from Consumer

Our 4-1/2-million-mile test with a fleet of New York City taxicabs turned
some conventional wisdom on its head.
Mobil commercial claims its oil "has been in more Indy 500 winners than any
other oil." Quaker State shows an engine with a terminally corroded inside

b*******e 发帖数: 6482 | 8 对,你被坑了。
大部分出租司机还是诚实的,但确实有害群之马。
曼哈顿去JFK的flat fare$52是车费,需要额外交toll+税+附加费。
如果走了Tunnel,Toll需要你付。如果没走必然不需要(废话)。
没有SUV加价一说。
没有行李收费一说(除非放不下挂在车外)。
没有高额税费一说。(税不超过$2,Rush hour附加费4.5)
帮你开门,帮你推车,帮你装卸箱子,都是服务
每个大箱子最少给$1,重的多给。
但如果遇到一个坐在车上雷打不动的司机,不需要给小费。
另外注意Flat Fare只针对Yellow Cab有效,
Uber/Black Livery Car/Limo是不同的系统。

Central NJ华人比例相对高,华人超市和饭店林立,还有著名的印度人聚集城市Edison
