taxis ecológicos libres
Mexico city is full of this green VW taxis. They are green because they're supposed to be ecological (new ones are white and red) and the letter L on the license plate stands for libre [free], which means you can catch them anywhere on the street, rather than at a taxi stand (those have an S).
