Trapped in a taxi could be fun. Low budget, eh? A lot of different people/creatures could be trapped for a lot of different reasons. Would be fun to explore.

A taxi? Who the Hell takes a taxi? Not me. I don't think I've been in a taxi in 25 years...and don't plan on ever being in one again.

With all the talk of diversity, we should do something in that area. The protag MUST be black, crippled, gay, transgender, bullied at school, dyslexic, suffering from ADHD, OCD and ginger.

And the driver must be called.... Jeff...cos he don't take cabs
I don't care what it is, I treasure the challenge
I just hope it's soon, I'm away last two weeks with no connection, which would be tricky.

Maybe trapped with your Uber.

I was just going to say this is an Uber idea but now someone has beaten me to the pun by 9 minutes.

The Uber angle is what makes the taxi idea interesting. Taxi drivers hate the fuck out of Uber and a few have perpetrated some occasionally creative but usually just nefarious/destructive acts against Uber drivers. This dynamic hasn't been explored much in fiction, if at all, as far as I can tell, but there's definitely a lot to go on at this point. Whether the vehicle is Uber or taxi seems much less interesting/consequential IMO.
