There are multiple other ones with the roof sign visible which have exactly the same look from the windows down. So its pretty easy to conclude that this one is a taxi too since it looks like the other taxis.

And if you get it wrong you simply move on to the next question.

Yes, and then on to the next. They don't just profile your answers, they profile your browser too. The more obscure the browser, the more likely my answers are "invalid", regardless of what I select.

I always close the tab, it's way better for my health.

And color and type of car as some taxi does not imply it is taxi. Like not at all.

Taxi comes in exactly same colors and types as any other car.
