[QUOTE=hlburi]... Come to find out later, cabs won't stop if you flag them (like they do in NYC). Apparently by law, they can't. (or at least that is what we were told). It was kind of irritating. ...QUOTE]

I believe the law is that they can't stop on the street. Years ago we stayed at the Day's Inn Town Hall Casion - dumpy place on Koval behind Ballys - its been torn down now. We would call for cabs, but they rarely showed up. If we flagged one on the street they would circle back and stop in the parking lot.
