Answer

- Always choose licensed taxis and check that the driver has a visible ID and the taxi has a meter; this ensures you are getting a legitimate service. - When using ride-hailing apps, confirm the car's license plate and driver’s details before getting in, which adds an extra layer of safety. - Avoid sharing taxis with strangers late at night and, if possible, travel with someone else for added security. Practical Pattaya note: Match the advice to your exact location, budget, transport and travel dates, and confirm time-sensitive details directly with the relevant provider or official source.
