Atlantic City Cab question
I was in a cab around 3:30 AM Sunday morning and the cab charged me $15. I asked him wasn't the maximum he could charge is $11, and he said, no, not at this hour. (He had started the meter over again). I assume I was taken, correct? I did not give him a tip.

Re: Atlantic City Cab question
I have never taken a cab in AC and have not felt scammed. Avoid them! Take the jitney or walk the boardwalk..but if you have to get in a cab, immediately say "turn on the f'ing meter!"

Re: Atlantic City Cab question
I usually take a jitney, but I had to catch a bus, and in the middle of the night, sometimes the jitneys are full or don't come for half an hour at a time.

Re: Atlantic City Cab question
Did you only travel within AC? If so, you were ripped off. If not, you weren't.

Re: Atlantic City Cab question
They normally try to not use the meter at all. Then at the destination, [edit- politically incorrect name] sizes you up and tells you it's $20, or whatever for the $5 fare.. So you, the dispatcher and the taxman all get f'ed.

Re: Atlantic City Cab question
I was in the city limits, and I knew the cabbie was wrong. What is my recourse if it every happens again, refuse to pay him more than $11 and have him call the cops on me if he thinks he is right?
