The vast majority of taxis are safe, but you may want to take a few precautions, especially if you're travelling alone. For example, only use registered/licenced vehicles and operators have your money ready before you reach your destination, get out of the cab and then pay the driver. When booking a cab you can also ask what sort of car will be collecting you.
