Panama Taxis - Update

I was apparently misinformed about the reliability and safety of the 'Panama Taxi', they are SAFE to catch, I repeat - SAFE TO CATCH.

A few pointers however;

1. There are no meters, so before you get in the taxi, tell the guy where you want to go and ask him how much it'll be. If it's over 5 dollars, tell him to stuff it.

2. Taxis can and WILL stop to pick up other people on the route, so don't freak out (like I did!).

3. Safety is really a non-item over there, so don't expect seatbelts or soft music. More often than not they'll have Reggeaton at full blast.

4. No taxi will ever be the same colour.

5. They can't be that bad - look, even famous people catch them.....
