i have been using cabs for the last three [[3) years because of car troubles. four weeks ago i needed a ride from lafayette & st. aubin. the cabbie who picked me up asked what i am used to paying for the ride...i told him the truth and he accepted and on we went. we got engrossed in conversation and we both realized that he missed the location and turned around and got me where i needed to go. he accepted the fare we agreed upon and i gave him a good tip and now i call his personal cell phone when i need a ride. IF A CABBIE WILL NOT TURN ON THE METER...STOP AND GET OUT and pay NOTHING!!! You are the customer! they have learned that they can take advantage of you. They can't force you to pay if you have only traveled a 1/4 mile without the meter running. Learn your rights and try to have them FORCE the law on you! THEY will learn soon that you can't be taken advantage of. Stand your ground or be buried in it!!!
