> they'll almost certainly call a local company and ask for a cab to be sent over

In my experience they just step outside and wave one down.

Those mostly also belong to a bigger company that handles call in dispatches.

I don't think they've ever had radios in though, doesn't seem likely that they also take dispatches.

You don't need a radio now because of cell phones...

I said they never had radios in the past. These aren't radio taxes. They pick people up from the side of the road. That's most taxies in my experience.
