Taximeter
an instrument that records the distance a taxi has traveled and automatically indicates a fare based on established rates. A taximeter is a mechanical counter with a revolving, cable-driven drum. The counter is connected to the driven shaft of the taxi’s transmission by means of a gear reducer. If the vehicle stops while the taximeter is running, the counter is driven by a clock mechanism that continues calculating the fare. In addition to the fare, the taximeter registers the total distance in kilometers covered by the taxi, the distance in kilometers over which fares have been collected, the number of trips made with passengers, and the total of the fares collected for the workday.

The LRT terminal in Bahrain should offer easy access to local taxis in order to reach the final destination - a way of transportation being even more popular after the Interior Ministry is enforcing use of taximeters abolishing the actual cowboy-manners of taxi driver - or free busses could be offered as well. Other future developments include proposals to make it easier for disabled people to book and use taxis, to require all taxis to have taximeters, and to allow all taxis in Belfast to pick up passengers without a booking. |
