The Cooperative Taxi is an easy vehicle to identify. They have the standard colors of cab s in Rio de Janeiro(yellow, navy blue and white, with the luminous sign usually in green to reaffirm their function) and always have the name of the cooperative written on the car’s bodywork. Make sure it’s a serious cooperative and, if in doubt, talk to the driver before getting in the car.
It’s also a precautionary measure to register the license plate as well as the name of the cooperative and to check that the driver has the necessary certifications (these are usually displayed somewhere in the car). Traveling safely is essential! The price of each ride depends on the mileage traveled; the taxi fare is fixed and set by the city council, on this page you can check the mileage rate.
