Hehe one time I have to wait 20 minutes to get a taxi, it was a very busy street. Than I hold the cab driver for another 10 minutes because my girlfriend went to a toilet. I just put my backpack at the seat and stand outside the car. The driver was angry with me but wait all the time and nobody try to take my taxi.
