taximeters

Fare-tracking cab devices

Taximeters are devices in taxis that calculate fares based on distance traveled and time elapsed.

The meter runs throughout the journey, displaying the accumulating charge.

Modern taximeters may integrate with GPS and digital payment systems.

The taximeter showed twelve dollars when we pulled up to the hotel.
