Maybe start at $40, and who knows, you might get that.

I have never paid less than 50- that is morning price.

it is unwise to travel NH4 after dark due to the increased chance of accidents.

All hit or miss.

Few seconds later he came back, offered $50, I said $30 so we agreed on $45. Was a rather new Toyota SUV and the driver was fast but surprisingly safe. Took about 3h including the evening rush hour outside PP. Not too bad at all. Didn't feel uncomfortable or insecure once.
Excellent - best possible outcome. I had a guy get me there in < 2+1/2 once. He drove fast but he never passed blind. I wish I remebered which taxi business card was his.
