I hate taking cabs when I am in big cities. I do it quite frequently because it is just easy and hassle free for the most part, but I always hate watching that meter creep up and up and up. It is nice when you have to go to a fixed place where they always charge you a flat fee. Then you don't need to worry about traffic or any of that.
The meters don’t move much at all here. Even when stuck in semi stationary traffic. The cabbies will sometimes refuse to take you places far away unless it’s off the meter.
All that idling still uses gas and half of your journey is just that, waiting about. They do have a point.

Uber doesn't charge me extra for just sitting there :)
