Message: [QUOTE="Liquid, post: 10820165, member: 167130"] What the criteria for becoming a licenced taxi in Bratislava are, I don't know, but taxis in Bratislava using the shared economy of a taxi app (not Uber in this case, it's called Hop In) [I]are[/I] actual taxis from the genuine companies. I live on a short road and the bit outside my building's front door is where most of the taxis park when they don't have a pick up. It's also about 50 yards from the entrance to the old town so they either wait for a drunk tourist to flag one and proceed to mug said tourist with extraordinary fees, or they wait for a pick up to come through on their phone/tablet and go off to find them. All the taxi drivers have a phone or tablet with their version of the app, waiting for something to come through. It's a handy system, I have to admit. [/QUOTE]
