Many cities in Brazil have motorcycle taxi options. Motorcycle taxis can be an economically smart (and very fun!) means of transportation, but be sure to note certain safety concerns -- your location is not being tracked, and motorbike accidents are not uncommon. Check out our motorcycle taxi vocabulary list and practice your knowledge with flashcards.
