Re: “Fare Warning”
Kyle is right! What makes cabs so special? What is the difference between a ride to the airport in a towncar and a ride to the airport in a taxi? Why should there be two prices?

KICKBACK = COMMISSION! Its part of our industry... why don't you cabbies get it?
Re: “Fare Warning”
Town cars are the best option for most hotel guests. They charge a flat rate, arrive at a scheduled time, and provide the fastest and most reliable way from downtown to PDX. All these accusations of ‘bribery and collusion’ are way out of line. The hardworking, minimum wage earning hotel staff help guests make transportation arrangements everyday. Sometimes that involves a cab, other times it’s a town car, a limo, a jetboat, a coach bus, a pedicab, a shuttle van etc. If the Anonymous Taxi Drivers would learn to speak English, the location of a few popular restaurants, proper grooming, how to use the light on the roof or their cars, how to park in front of a hotel, and how to stay out of the bike lane then they might be a decent option for a hotel guest. The fact that it takes five minutes for the dispatcher to answer the phone and another ten for a cab to show up makes the prearranged town car service an even better option.
