About
The Oncoming Taxi emoji (🚖) is your digital bat signal for when you need a ride or want to announce you're finally leaving that terrible party. It's the perfect way to say "rescue me" or "transportation secured" without typing out the logistics, plus it captures that universal moment of relief when you spot yellow salvation approaching through traffic.
