I think it's depend on which country accept bitcoin.If my country not accept bitcoin, then How do I hire a texi?
Bitcoin is a technology driven idea. To be able to use bitcoin as a payment for a taxi, the taxi infrastructure must adopt the new technology. It is not like what traditional payment scheme we do in a taxi, we just pay what the taxi meter showed. Like Uber or other services that we were able to adopt to their system. If bitcoin will be used as payment there will be a new system or a new digital coin only to be used to their system.
I think taxi it is not top priority item where bitcoin can be used
there are a lot of sphere where bitcoin will be usefull, something like insiarence or medicine

I like taxi. I think this is a good idea. I hope in my city also accept bitcoin. because everyday I use taxi.
Using cryptocurrency in a taxi is a good idea. In fact there is an ongoing ICO regarding carpool. The name of the coin is CARTAXI. It will operate around Europe and some place in America.
As I know that Uber taxi has accepted Bitcoin for payment but It's not work all over the world, only in few countries cause Bitcoin is not legalized world wide. But it's very cool if we can use Bitcoin for everything we need. Maybe I also can use Bitcoin to pay for taxi or anything else in next 2 years cause the government in my country is going to legalize Bitcoin and it will be done in 2019, I hope so 
I hope not only for taxi, but for all mass service. if that's the case I'm sure bitcoin is the champion.
but whether that hope will come true

Well actually using our bitcoins to pay in taxi's is a really a good idea because you don't need to worry to cashing out the money in your bitcoin wallet, you will only just send your bitcoins to the driver using your wallet. And also using pur bitcoins to pay taxi's will be more cheaper for us to pay to our trips or travels. I don't know how you can now use the bitcoin payment in a taxi. The price for a small transaction can be approximately equal to the cost of travel. Much cheaper to withdraw a large sum to a Bank card and pay with it for taxis and shopping in the store.
Yeah bitcoin Is now being use for a lot of the purposes such as in the market and it is increasing the value of the bitcoin. More people are using bitcoin and they will pay the high amount of the money for the days. The bitcoin payment for the taxi is looking a small thing but I think it will increase the value of the bitcoin currency more and more. So it will be easy to pay for all the things with the bitcoin 
everyone hopes that way. finding bitcoin to make things easy and I think when it's done bitcoin as a taxi payment tool and it's very interesting everyone finds ease wherever they are they can transactions without having to swap their country money to the money exchange this is done quickly I am sure this will become real
There is a larger thread with the same title and with the same "quality" responses.

It's a good idea to have the option to pay for bitcoins. Aside from this it is good, Because bitcoins are more familiar with many people. Therefore, these countries are legally binding on the price of bitcoins. And more companies will receive payouts from bitcoins, And in fact it happens, like real estate, And much more. So let's get ready for the new generation because it's coming soon.
maybe later there will be bitcoin time to be part of the real world. for now very little development in the real world. so I think it will be there in time.
In our country, grab and uber is in demand since it is safer than having the usual taxi. In here there are various ways to pay the fee and i think it will be a good idea if bitcoin would be an additional option in paying it. In this way bitcoin will be introduced to the public as well and might be the reason for the boom of this site. Many will be encourage once they know the benefits that we'll gain in joining in bitcoin forums.
I remember reading elsewhere on this forum that Uber has started allowing tips with Bitcoin and if that was indeed true I don't think it will be long before Uber will implement it as part of their payment options.

Same topic, why you can't use search function?
//Topic: I think that paying in bitcoin for TAXI is a waste. Same goes for restaurant and some other amenities. I prefer to hold instead of spending.

This is an interesting post. However, if everyone would only hold BTC instead of spending, BTC can never be considered a real currency. Volatility is an important aspect of a currency. So spending BTC in a taxi, in restauraunts or during grocery shopping in everyday life should be a major aim in the long run. I guess, I can assume that you are only holding BTC for now and might spend it in the near future?
Kind regards,

I believe in some country, Uber has started taking payments in bitcoin. I can't remember the country name right now. But why you are so excited about making your taxi payments in bitcoin? You will be loosing a fortune for sure. The amount of money you spend using bitcoin for your taxi ride fares, that probably in future, can be same as a cost of a car itself.
Bitcoin's potential is really high and it can reach to any price point in future. Don't get surprised if a bitcoin value reaches at 25000 USD in future. So instead of spending your bitcoin, save it and pay your taxi bills using your local currency. At least that's what I will do if I were you.
Could you possibly elaborate a little bit more than just a single sentence? I read that Uber (similar to a regular taxi) allows users to tip their drivers with bitcoin. That's about halfway there. But still, making bitcoin a proper payment method would obviously be very beneficial to the bitcoin price and the community.
yes. I think that's a good idea. with bitcoin we can add efficiency and ease of payment. I think some countries have implemented it. may de japan or other bitcoin support states.
I think this is less efficient, because we all know that when making transactions with bitcoin it requires some confirmation, and also have to think about the fee. very unfortunate if we throw some fee for taxi payment transaction. I think with money it will be easier and it does not take long.
Fiat payment would be faster and more reliable. How is the taxi driver supposed to know that we have paid? Most of taxi drivers are not into technology. Some of them are against Uber because it's something new and innovative. It would overhaul the way how they are getting along with their customers.
