GTA:Taxi
Being a Taxi Driver is one of the few jobs you can become in order to make some money. As a Taxi driver you are able to help out civilians by collecting them and delivering them to their desired location.
To become a Taxi Driver you will be required to own a Taxi License, this can be purchased from City Hall for £6,000. Once you have the License you can head to the Taxi Depot located on Tangerine Street south of the Diamond Casino & Resort.
Going On Duty
To go on duty as a Taxi Driver, make your way to the Downtown Cab Co. building marked on your map. From there, enter the office and use ArchiesEye on the desk and clock in. Once clocked in the same desk with ArchieEye can be used to rent one of the two taxis available. The taxi will appear outside the front of the depot ready for use. If it doesn't appear, it could be because something is blocking where the taxi should spawn. The spaces on the southside of the yard is where it will look to appear so check this is clear if you do not see it.
As a Taxi Driver you will get dispatch requests whenever someone messages the Taxi Helpline in the favourites page of your phone. Pressing I will set your GPS to the location the dispatch was sent, and pressing O will allow you to view all previous dispatches. Using your mouse to click on a dispatch in the list will also set your GPS to the location. You can do this in any vehicle you like.
As a Taxi Driver, you can also set yourself as available for NPC jobs. Only the standard taxis below can be used for NPC missions. To do this, go to CAPS > Interactions > Toggle NPC Job, and drive around until you find a customer, then pull up beside them so they jump in then drive to the location marked on the GPS. Once you arrive you will be paid depending on the distance.
