I for one frown on drinking and driving but a taxi is only one alternative.

No answers about taxi rates yet. Guess not many folks take the safer option of a taxi. Nothing disguised here. Here bully bully.

We spent a night at S.S. last summer. Stayed until the band stopped playing and then some and when we went to get in the car and go home the battery was dead. Didn't want to call any freinds at the ungodly hour of 10:00 pm, so we called the Village Taxi. It cost us $20.00 to go from S.S. to Bonnybrook, about a ten minute ride. We thought that the price was a little steep, but for those that drink too much it's cheap compared to a DUI ticket.

Per the following thread, it seems as though The Village Taxi is kaput as of the end of last month:

Bill, there seems to be confusion because there are or were two different Village Taxi's for a total of three that I know of. I just contacted one that was advertising in the Sun on May 1st to see if I could get an estimate on the fare from our home to Ocala for later in this coming week. Here by phone number is what I experienced:

241-2000 - They told me that they only operate within the Villages and to and from the Airport and they are as quoted in their ad: "We're here TODAY! We're here to STAY!"

753-1415 - This number was give to me from the guy at the first number. I called them and they work in or around the Villages only and do so on a reservation basis only.

753-5000 or 259-1682 - This number was given to me by the 1415 number. They're called KJ Taxi Service in Lady Lake. I called them and they will service anywhere within reason. They're fee is $2.50 per mile and $250.00 if over 20 miles. That's right.... $250. No typo... see my signature below! :p
