Taxis in front of Bandidos

Just had a local friend heading home, denied a taxi.
Taxi driver told my friend he was there for the gringos only. UNREAL!
After walking a ways he was able to flag one down that was passing by.

My friend had just worked all day and came over to help me hang curtains and this is how his day ended.

I'm very disappointed in the treatment he received and only wish he had thought to look at the number on his taxi. He did say they seem to be the same drivers that handle that area.

Tourists are obviously being overcharged, while the locals are treated as if their business is not needed.

Shameful

Time for some games. Pretend you're going to use one of the taxis parked in front of Bandidos, ask how much to La Ropa or Ixtapa, then make a huge spectacle of being outraged at being taken advantage of when they quote the wrong rate, which they WILL do. Photos or videos get extra points. I will be happy to upload them to YouTube, Vevo, Twitter, or Facebook.

Thanks for the heads up! Shameful indeed!
