1. They never have change
If you’re not going to take Credit Cards for payment, you need to carry enough change for the day. Seriously, how long have you been doing this? We see right through the “no cambio” routine as a way to make a little extra money
2. They drive THE most ghetto cars
Did you get this one on sale at the junk lot? It doesn’t inspire a lot of confidence when you get into a car with dents all over it.
3. What’s with that smell?
There’s a magical chemical substance called Febreeze that Costa Rica taxi drivers have not yet discovered. At least have some self respect and clean your car every once in a while.
4. They’re homophobic
NOT, cool man. Just not cool.
5. They’re racist
There are two pricing structures for the Taxi drivers in Costa Rica. The price you pay if you are a Tico, and the price you pay if you’re a tourist/gringo.
6. They’re violent
The Costa Rica taxi drivers reaction against Uber coming into San Jose just shows you they know how horrible their service is. The more they react in violence to the inevitable destruction of their monopoly, the faster they’ll be out of work.
