For anyone who has ever been to New York, you know that Taxi’s are everywhere and cannot be avoided if you are in the city. Well, recently, New York’s Taxi & Limousine Commission gave a preview of future taxis that will be on the roads in the very near future that have a touch screen to allow users to watch television and follow your route progress via a GPS system. You will also now be able to pay by credit card.

We don’t know when exactly a large number of these “Tech Taxis” will be released in New York, but if we get more details, we will update you here at Tech.NewsThis.com.
