Taxis in Shaoxing are much cheaper than most other cities in China. The meter starts at 5 RMB for the first 3 kilometers, and is 2.2 RMB per kilometer thereafter. If you take the taxi to a more distant location, the taxi driver will charge an additional 30% "returning fee" due to local rules.
Taxis are a convenient way for passengers to get to their destinations directly and quickly. Sometimes taxis are not readily available during rush hour, and other times taxi drivers may simply refuse to pick you up.
The taxi are now 6RMB for the first 2.5 km although the meter still shows 5 RMB Distances are shorter than in large cities so it is still cheap. The driver are polite but VERY bad drivers as in most Chinese cities. I sit in the back and stare at the floor when in taxis
