Blog post # 2 Symbolize American Culture

 NYC Taxi is one of the symbol of American cultures. The yellow cab company is one of the oldest running taxi firms in America. The taxi services have started about 100 years ago. In 1905, John Hertz and Walden have been beginning American first taxi service company which became most familiar all over on the US. Most of the Americans have been depending on Taxi in their daily life, specially New Yorker.We see different kinds of Taxi in bellow:





Taxi is one kind of companion for Americans. People are busy in their daily life, and they are saving time by taking taxi except public transportation. On the other hand, a lot of immigrant became taxi driver because they didn't get a good job. So, I think Taxi is a big symbol in American culture. I add a link bellow which give you some ideas about NYC Taxi: http://www.google.com/images?hl=en&source=hp&biw=1280&bih=709&q=The+NYC+taxi&btnG=Search+Images&gbv=2&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=
