What Steps Can You Take to Stay Safe When Using Taxis in Unfamiliar Destinations?

Do Your Homework
Before you get to your destination, take some time to look up local taxi services or rideshare apps. For example, if you’re in Bangkok, Grab is a well-known and reliable option.

Check the Taxi
Make sure the taxi has a working meter and looks like what you were told it would look like.

Tell Someone
Let a friend or family member know where you’re going, or use an app to share your location with someone.

Be Alert
Keep your things close to you and pay attention to how the driver is behaving. Always trust your gut feelings!
