The one thing that I found positive about Colombian taxis is that they are very cheap. In this regard, I don't see how Uber could compete.
On the other hand, the cars are falling to bits and the drivers are rather aggressive (although it seemed to me that drivers were careless in general).
- charlesdm 7y agoI'd rather pay more and have a safe taxi ride, over a dirt cheap and unsafe taxi ride...

- sblawrie 7y agoUber rides are incredibly cheap in Colombia, too. A 20 minute uberX ride across Medellin probably costs around $4.
