it might be a dumb question, and i dont care if it is,
but i cant find it in the booklets or on the net

and i want to do cab rides!!!
how to enable cabrides, so i can scare the out of ppl??

If you're asking if you can drive a cab and pick people up, then sorry, can't be done.

no u can work for roman and drive his cab to make money but u only can do with in so many missions for roman once they are over so is working and making money driving cabs for roman.

If you're looking to WORK as a cabbie, do as Viscera1969 says and call Roman. There should be an option for 'Work'.

For the PC version, I'm not sure how to hail a cab. I think you either hold F or press Enter... Although I've ever only played it on a friend's computer, so I don't know?

i know how to hail a cab, but to pick up someone in a yellow cab "to earn money" is prob not availible
and thats to bad actually, does this also caunt for ambulance and firetruck?
because i know you can do police missions to press E inside a policecar when standing still

to bad for the yellow cab, i wanted to scare the out of ppl

For the PC version, when you see a yellow cab nearby, press E (default) to hail the cab. You'll see niko waving and whistling. If you have a weapon out, it'll be a BIT slower cos he has to holster the weapon first. So if you're in a rush, and you see a yellow cab zooming by, manually holster your weapon then hail. I noticed that it's a TAD faster. And as mentioned by a few people, you can't just get into a yellow cab, and "use" it to get cab missions. You have to call Roman for "work", then use a SPECIFIC cab (it's black/grey, like the cab that picks you up when you use Roman's cab service), THEN you do ONE cab fare. After that, you gotta call Roman again to do another cab fare but won't have to collect another car cos you SHOULD be in the same Roman cab (unless some crazy driving was involved ).

the taxi mini-missions that were in III,VC, and SanAn are not in IV.

only 'taxi' missions are from roman.

The firetruck and hospital mini-missions are gone as well.

that sucks...
