Movie directors were deliciously non IT savvy at the time, I remember as a teenager growling every time an actor switched off the monitor when he meant to switch off the computer.
But I guess taxi drivers still growl today at all those characters leaving the cab without paying in movies!
- jessriedel 3y agoDo any taxis allow you to swipe your credit card and select a tip during the middle of the ride, rather than waiting until the end? You could just set up the whole transaction and then when the taxi stopped the fare+tip+tax would display and you could just hit "approve". Seems like such a waste for people to twiddle their thumbs during the ride and then spend 60 seconds checking out while the cab is blocking a lane. (Not to mention that Uber/Lyfts don't have this downside, which puts taxis at a disadvantage.)

In NYC you can use some apps (e.g. Arro or Curb, which are apparently sort of the same thing) to connect to your current ride so that it pays when it is over
