My dad was a cabbie there himself (had to work for extra money because of the depression caused by Alan Garcia’s first Presidential term, 85-90) and he often had to charge an average that didn’t seem to fly with what most people wanted. He even kept an iron bar by his seat just in case he had to confront someone (thank God he never actually did, though).
