We’ve all needed the service of a human delivery car or taxi for all you politically-correct people. Taxis come when we call and take us where we need to go without any fuss (well, it is a cab driver’s job to do so).
Taxis have come a long way from the beginning of their creation and we at Trend Hunter would like to show them some love.
From pink taxis to horny taxis (don’t ask, just look) here are 23 taxi innovations.
