The driver refused to use the meter because he claimed it was broken even though it looked like it worked. He also wouldn't tell me how much he would charge me for the ride until after the ride was over. Needless to say, I found a different taxi that used the meter.

Their favorite scam it to suggest that you take the freeway to avoid traffic. From the strip to the airport this adds about $15. A cabbie told me that if this happens to write down the cabbie's license number and the cab company. File a complaint with the cab regulatory agency. In Las Vegas you will get the cab fee refunded and the cabbie will get fined. Probably works in other cities as well. I recently go ripped by a cab driver in Las Vegas.
