Taxis..the drives that are known for expensive fares  that take you to limited distance (well,  in case of Nepal) that comes with nice and comfortable drives. Who wouldn't wanna travel in a taxi? Actually who are the people that use taxi? I may have some answers for it below: 1.        People who would want a hassle free ride rather than a sophisticated and a packed local bus. 2.        People who always like to show up in time without constant stopping in bus stations every 5 minutes. 3.        People who are well, always late or a last minuter. 4.        People who are classy enough to not take a local bus. 5.        People who simply love to travel in taxi.

With all the hustle -bustle and people forging inside the vehicles in a quick pace, you literally have to fight for yourself to save a seat and trust me the struggle is REAL - me being the daily victim. The local means of transportation for daily commuters in a developing country like Nepal are micro - buses, mini - vans, tempos, local buses and lately 'Mahanagar Yaatayat'.
