taxi tip

Driver's extra payment

A taxi tip is the gratuity given to a cab driver at the end of a ride, typically calculated as a percentage of the fare.

In the U.S., 15-20% is customary: I added a few dollars as a taxi tip.

The amount often reflects service quality, help with luggage, or navigation through difficult traffic.
