Sorry if this appears to be pedantic, but this is one item that's been emphasized in the "Getting Around" section of the Final Attendee Information (formerly Large Final Mailing) for several years.
+ In Las Vegas, taxi drivers are supposed to pick up riders only at designated taxi stands or
+ via a radio call. They are not supposed to respond to a "hail" or "flag" on the street although
+ they sometimes will. (This is illegal and they risk getting cited for doing so.)
Lots of hints and information such as this appear in the Final Information. Please look it over.
It will be available on Thursday and everyone should get a reminder about it. We're working on it now.
And, big thanks to our Proofread Team for being sure everything is current and accurate.
