Once you’ve found the right taxi, problems of fares, meters and other charges come into play. In some countries, all taxis are1, and the government regulates fares so you can expect 2problems. But in other places you may find drivers 3to use meters, 4the car should be equipped with one. The best way in such cases is to 5on their use, if you know meters are available.

  But 6countries where there truly are no meters? There are two methods you can use.

  One is to discuss the fare 7you get into the car. In Russia, this is the only way _8.”You call a taxi, and when the driver _9, you don’t get in,” a (an) 10_ traveler say.” The driver will   11over to the passenger side window, you tell him where you want to go, then discuss a price.”

  But another man takes a different approach on his trips to Latin America. His “never-ask-the-fare “policy 12_ like this.” While I’m in the airport, I ask three or four people to get an idea 13how much it will cost to get to my destination,” he explains.” I 14ask the driver how much it is, I just pay 15than what the people said. If it’s more, the driver will tell you.”

  When a fare does 16to be more than you expected, think about your choices. Of course, a large difference may 17you arguing with the driver. 18, one traveler makes the point that this 19may amount to pennies when you consider exchange rates.” Choose your fights,” she says.” Is it worth 25 or 50 cents to 20a taxi driver?”
