taxi cab
Hailed city vehicle
A taxi cab is a car that carries passengers for a fare, typically hailed on the street or summoned by phone.
The term is redundant—taxi and cab both mean the same thing independently—but the combination remains common: We grabbed a taxi cab outside the hotel.
Usually shortened to taxi or cab.
