Taxi!

SCENE 1
A woman is trying to get a taxi for some time; she flags down a cab, tells the taxi driver her destination and the taxi drives off-without her. Finally on her nth attempt, she finds a cab that is willing to take her to her destination.

SCENE 2

Another woman is crossing the road, she hails a cab even before she has reached the other side, does not bother giving her destination to the driver, opens the rear door of the taxi, gets in and the taxi roars off.

I was a witness to both these scenarios today-So which is a better way to "bag" a taxi in Cairo?
