About the taxi drivers...

There is a reason why Rockstar gave us the option to skip Taxi rides.

I doubt the Taxi drivers would ever manage to drive you from one island to another without getting stuck in a tree.

Or maybe because Taxis would be completelly useless otherwise? As you'd be able to drive there in 2 minutes, but have to watch the AI stop at every red light for 20 minutes.

 

Also, the AI does pretty well on itself with a car, but there are some places where they get confused by other cars and stuff, and scenario isn't a big deal, it's not like they have to drive a limo, or a bus or something.

 

And yeah, that could be one of the reasons why they cut bus rides early in Beta.

The worst thing is: If we told them to drive faster, they go full aggressive and crash into everything (driver A.I suck btw), it's look like they never went to driving school

 

Thankfully in V, they actually drive faster and still drive carefully

Yet GTA V removed the interior view of the taxis and all the taxi drivers are boring, forgettable idiots. Not like Mohammed. ;)

Only thing good in Gta IV related to taxi's like Assassin mentioned is Mohammed

 

Not to mention you can get a ride from him with a six star wanted level and shoot the cop's and he doesn't even freak out so it's very useful ,but hilarious at the same time lol.

If were led to believe Mohammed, Niko leaves the taxi smelling of pig sh*t.

 

Mmmm.

I have a love/hate thing going on with Mohammed, he can be funny but when you call for one of Roman's taxis and he's giving you sh*t, it can be annoying.

On an idle day, I get Niko to walk up and kick the door of a taxi stuck in traffic. The taxi driver will come out in a rage and chase Niko. If you can get Niko near a cop or cop car and let the taxi driver take a swing at him, the cops will arrest the taxi driver and take him off in a cop car. He gets accused of having illegal weapons, maybe stolen credit cards. Sometimes other taxi drivers will jump out and join in the chase. Often there are lots of empty cabs in traffic in Liberty City that day.......
