Crazy Taxi Ride

So Bob and I live pretty far away from the school so we take taxi's multiple times a day. Last night, we stayed at the bar untill close (Midnight), and the bartender called us a taxi. The taxi appeared out front, but it was not a real taxi. It was completely yellow, with no triangle or anything. We decided to get in anyway against our better judgement. Stephanie was in the car with us and we dropped her off first, and then the driver took myself and Bob to our house. The only problem is that the ride should take about 5 minutes where it actualy took 30 mins. On top of the length of time the ride took, the windows were fogging up and it didnt change the drivers speeds at all. He was speeding through stoplights and stopsigns, needless to say, I was a little worried. We ended up getting to the house, but the taxi had no meter so he said 3000 Colones, we were like no way jose, so we payed 2500 colones. NEVER TAKE A FAKE TAXI(unless you want a joyride around San Jose).
