I find that metered taxis are cheaper for about 80% of the trips I make. The exceptions are during periods of extremely high traffic where your Uber/Lyft Price is fixed, but the metered taxi price could really shoot up if you’re sitting in traffic too long.

Essentially, unless I’m traveling in rush hour, I’m always better off taking a metered cab, and it’s usually faster to boot.
