Rides Around the World

taxis in Dubai
In Moscow, according to this infographic, any driver can pick up a few extra bucks by stopping for a passenger and agreeing on a price for the requested trip. In Thailand, monks are not charged for taxi rides. In Manila, the first taxis were made from U.S. military vehicles left there after World War II. And in Beijing, rickshaws are more expensive than automobile taxis, as it's easier for them to get around traffic jams (interesting, yes, but just as interesting ~ to me, anyway ~ is the fact that, apparently, "its" and "it's" are also misused in England, where this story was written!)
