I'd hail a pink taxi!

I love Latin America. I love the adventure.  But, I don't love skeevy taxi drivers that I have often encountered there.  Well a Mexican entrepeneur has solved that problem--she has started a fleet of taxis that are driven by women and that only picks up women! I love it.  Although women's rights advocates (presumeably Anglo) call this a bandaid that doesn't address core social problems, I think (having being a gringa travelling alone in the region) this is a fabulous idea that will hopefully spread.  Read for yourself :)

Plus....aren't these taxis way cuter than that beat up one with the dents and duck tape...
