Can you use a credit card to pay for cab fare? -

This might be a stupid question. I ve never ridden in a cab before, and I was wondering it they took credit cards. I don t carry a lot of cash on me and I know a lot of people who are the same. I d like to know in case I get stranded somewhere and have to call a cab.

It depends, in some big cities like New York, Las Vegas yes, in most smaller cities no.

Always carry enough cash with you for a cab ride if you think you might need to get a ride. Most cabs do not accept credit cards, though the some in big cities with lots of tourists do.
